Kale Caesar Salad

Kale is one of my favorite greens. Its uses are similar to spinach and it's super easy to add to your diet. While the cook time is a bit longer than other greens this salad is raw so you don't need to worry about that. Kale is packed with vitamin K, A, and C, along with fiber and calcium. The fennel adds a hint of licorice flavor that blends well with the kale and Caesar dressing. Add this easy salad to your list of to go lunches and dinner sides.

Ingredients

2 cups chopped kale

1/2 cup fennel, sliced

3 oz cooked chicken breast, diced

1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons low-fat Caesar dressing (I use Maple Grove Farms of Vermont fat-free Caesar dressing)

Handful croutons 

Directions

1. Rip or cut out the fibrous ribs from the chopped kale. 
2. Add kale, fennel, chicken breast and Parmesan cheese to a large bowl. 
3. Dress with your choice of a low-fat Caesar dressing. Top with your favorite croutons.
