Kale, a very leafy and green vegetable full of vitamin A for our Immune System. We can combine this amazing vegetable with different vegetables, fruits, animal proteins (meat eaters) or plant based proteins.
A cup of kale contains many vitamins; Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Vitamin C, Vitamin B (1,2,3 & 6), Manganese, Calcium, Copper, Potassium, Magnesium, Iron and Phosphorus. It is a complete vegetable, but one of its best property is to reduce inflammation in our body, which is the main cause for developing different illnesses.
Did you know that drinking kale juice everyday will increase HDL ("good"cholesterol) by 27% and lowered LDL ("bad" cholesterol) by 10%. This precious vegetable is 43% as potent as Cholestyramine. Cholestyramine, a cholesterol-lowering drug that provides the same benefits as this vegetable, but has harmful effects in our body.
INGREDIENTS:
This recipe is for two portions.
Kale 4 big leaves.
Avocado (half of an avocado).
Lemon or lime (half of a lemon/lime).
Cashews (15 cashews).
Sea salt or Himalayan salt (up to you, the less the better).
Olive oil or avocado oil (1/2 of tablespoon).
After you wash the kale, cut the vegetable into small pieces. The way you cut your lettuce for a salad, it is good for this salad too. Put the chopped kale into a bowl, then chop the cashews in half before putting them in the salad. Cut the avocado in small pieces and it does not matter the size, because we are going to use our hands to mix all the ingredients. Make sure to wash your hands before our next step ...lol .....:P......Once you add the salt, lemon and oil to your salad, start squeezing and mixing all the ingredients with your hands until the avocado turns almost "creamy" or very small pieces. voilà! You have your salad! Enjoy!
Psst; Also, you can add Arugula in this recipe. Arugula is another powerful green, especially for women's hormones.
