HERE IS HOW TO MAKE KALE WHITE BEAN SALAD:

WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?

This salad is so easy so you may already have already at home but for the most part, you will just need to purchase some fresh kale and white beans. Fresh kale is available at most grocery stores all year round in the produce aisle and canned beans as well but in the pantry section. Those two ingredients are the star of the show then you’ll also want some lemon, salt, pepper, olive oil and grated parmesan! All available at local grocery stores.

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?

The ingredients to make this delicious kale white bean salad are:

  • Fresh Kale
  • White Navy Beans
  • Lemon
  • Parmesan
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Olive Oil

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

You truly don’t need anything special for this recipe! I just use everything I already have at home. I do find a handheld grater for parmesan to be great but if you don’t have a grater or can’t get it already grated, you can just chop it up into really small pieces. I use a lemon squeezer but you can also use your hands if you don’t have one readily available!

Here are some of my kitchen favs from Amazon!

CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING?

This salad is super simple and easy to make but you can of course tailor this to your liking! Here are some great ideas to add or substitute in this recipe!

  • Instead of parmesan, you can choose any cheese of your choosing like cheddar, pecorino romano, mozzarella etc.
  • You can add in some avocado for some creaminess
  • You can add in other spices and seasonings like garlic or onion powder
  • You can grate fresh garlic into the dressing
  • Add in some nuts like walnuts, pistachios or pine nuts
  • Add in some fresh croutons
  • Add in any hard fresh veggies like cabbage or carrots
  • Use any oil like avocado or grape seed

WHAT DOES KALE WHITE BEAN SALAD TASTE LIKE?

Kale already has a very earthy taste but it soaks up and blends well with the lemon and olive oil! You get that earthy taste from the kale, the hearty texture from the beans which soak up the flavours as well from the lemon and olive oil and a light hint of salty parmesan! This is an amazing savoury side salad with a nice citrus twist! I’m obsessed!! I’ve eaten this for 3 days straight.

HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?

Oh man, this salad is the star of keeping it’s structure! I absolutely adore how it gets even better every day that it sits in the fridge. The simple dressing acts like a marinade and is divine. Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days maximum. I make this into 4 servings and have it as a light lunch every day and it is phenomenal! I do not recommend freezing this as the texture will change once it is defrosted.

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?

I have been on a journey to increase my fiber intake! Fiber is so important and lowers the risk of so many chronic diseases. It also support healthy digestion and helps with weight management to keep you feeling full for longer. High fiber and high protein is my go to diet and it’s something I’m sticking to forever!

I LOVE kale and I’ve been experimenting with consuming more legumes everyday so I knew this would be the summer salad for me!

ANY OTHER NOTES?

No other notes for this one, enjoy!
