Description

A vibrant and healthy salad featuring kale, sunflower seeds, and sweet apples, inspired by the popular Chick-Fil-A version.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bunch kale, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • ½ cup roasted sunflower seeds
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ cup shredded cabbage
  • 1 apple, diced
  • ¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
  • Olive oil
  • Apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine the chopped kale, shredded carrots, roasted sunflower seeds, cherry tomatoes, shredded cabbage, diced apple, and feta cheese if using in a large bowl.
  2. Whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently until everything is nicely coated.
  4. Serve immediately for the freshest experience, or let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

This salad holds up well in the fridge for a day; keep the dressing separate until ready to eat to prevent sogginess.
