Kale with Liquid Aminos

This dressing has a weird ingredient called Bragg’s liquid aminos.  Even after reading about it I’m still not entirely sure what it is.  From what I can tell it’s a gluten-free soy sauce replacement with no added salt.  If you’re not worried about gluten I’d think using soy sauce would be just fine.  We’re obviously not concerned about gluten since we’re enjoying our salad with a nice slice of gluten-filled-bread.  I believe this salad recipe came from a pre-made one we bought at a grocery store and we tried to re-create it from the list of ingredients.

Ingredients

makes 5 servings

  • 2 bunches of kale, de-stemmed
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds

Dressing:

  • 1/3 c olive oil
  • 1/3 c lemon juice
  • 1/3 c braggs liquid aminos (or substitute soy sauce)

Thinly slice 1/2 red onion and marinate in dressing for a few hours or overnight.  Pour onions and dressing over kale and toss with toasted sesame seeds, toasted pumpkin seeds, and toasted sunflower seeds.

    We’ve been making something similar for dinner but bulking it up with farro and avocado to make more of a meal. You can also add beans, wild rice, or any other grain.
