RAW KALE SALAD

Raw Vegetables are some times better than cooked, since high temperatures destroy nutrients. Some people find their digestive system are not healthy enough to digest raw cuciferous vegetables like Broccoli, Cauliflower and Cabbage, but if slightly cooked they handle them quite well. With that said, add as much raw vegetables as your system (and appetite) will handle. Raw vegetables present to your cells enzymes that are alive and ready to create life in you. Example: if you cut the top off of a raw carrot and place it in a bit of water, it will sprout and grow. If you cut the top off of a cooked carrot, it has no life in it, because it is dead. Cooked vegetables do have value, but it can not give to you it's life in the form of organic minerals and life-giving enzymes. Eat both raw and cooked.

RAW KALE SALAD

Fill a salad bowl with a combination of chopped Kale and Spinach.
Add half of an Avocado, sliced or large chop.
Add chopped Roma Tomato or Cherry Tomatoes cut in half.
Sprinkle your salad with Sea Salt
Drizzle with Toasted Sesame Oil and toss to coat leaves.
Add Lemon Juice and/or Balsamic Vinegar (I use both)

Optional additions that I like to add:

Cut up Sun-dried Tomatoes
Hard Boiled Egg (This makes it a meal salad with the protein from the Egg)
Sweet Onion Rings or chop them.

Note: If you do not like the taste of Sesame Oil, use a quality Olive Oil or Avocado Oil, Flax or Udo's Oil.

You always want to wash carefully the kale. You can chop what you are planning to use and then drop it in cold water to wash. Use a salad spinner to dry the Kale for salads or place on a cloth to dry.

I am interested in knowing how many of you are attracted to this recipe. Kale and other greens are not popular but health-wise they are well worth developing a taste for. This is just one bowl that you might dump if you don't like what you created, so you haven't wasted much. Avocados are another fruit that may not like. However, when they are mixed with other ingredients you don't notice them. Avocados are an excellent food that yields health benefits.

Let me know if you try this and if you like it. Also let me know if you created it differently with different ingredients. I started out creating this salad because I needed to eat Kale for cleansing and repair right now. I made it really simple with Kale, Toasted Sesame Oil, Salt and Sun-dried Tomatoes. I really liked the Toasted Sesame Oil.
