Broccoli Greens or Kale and Orange Salad with Pumpkin Seeds
For the dressing
4 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 teaspoons cold-pressed hemp or extra virgin olive oil (or combo)
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
For the salad
4 packed cups stemmed, thinly sliced raw kale or broccoli greens
2 oranges, peeled, seeds removed and chopped
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
Make the dressing by combining the lemon juice, oil, and salt directly in a large salad bowl.
Place the kale in the bowl and mix until each leaf is well coated. Let the kale sit in the dressing to allow it to tenderize, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Add the oranges, red onion, and pumpkin seeds. Toss well and serve.
