Ingredients

  • 10 oz Tuscan Kale, trimmed and chopped
  • 8 oz halloumi, or substitute feta cheese
  • 4 Natural Delights Pitted Organic medjool dates, chopped
  • ½ cup toasted, sliced almonds
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Balsamic Date Dressing

  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • 2 Natural Delights Pitted Organic medjool dates
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tbsp water
  • Salt u0026 pepper

Directions

  1. Prepare the balsamic date dressing by adding all of the ingredients into a blender and blending until smooth. Add salt u0026 pepper to your liking
  2. Add the chopped kale to a large salad bowl and pour the dressing over the top. Massage the dressing into the kale, using your hands or tongs, for at least 1 minute to soften the kale. Let it sit while you prepare the halloumi
  3. Cut the halloumi into 1” pieces. Heat a large skillet with olive oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the halloumi pieces and cook for about 30-40 seconds per side until browned.
  4. Add the halloumi to the salad and top with the slivered almonds and chopped dates
  5. Toss everything together and enjoy!
