Lemon Feta Kale Salad
This bright and refreshing salad is packed with fresh flavor in every bite! Tender lacinato kale is tossed with a zesty lemon vinaigrette, crunchy sliced almonds, and a touch of honey for balance.

2. In a small mason jar or bowl whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, kosher salt and a few turns of cracked black pepper. Whisk together until dressing has emulsified.
