Honey Mustard Kale Salad with Sausage and Peppers.
This colorful and flavorful kale salad with cooked peppers and sausages is a tasty recipe your family will love!
Ingredients
- 1 bunch curly kale stems removed, rinsed, and leaves cut into strips
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 chicken sausages
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 orange bell pepper cut into thin strips
- 1 yellow bell pepper cut into thin strips
- ¼ cup yellow mustard
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- ⅓ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Place the chopped kale into a large bowl. Drizzle with lemon juice, and use your hands to massage the juice into the kale. This will help make the kale less tough and easier to digest.
- Slice each sausage into 3 pieces. In a large skillet, cook the peppers and sausages in the olive oil over medium heat. Cook until the sausages are browned and crisp on the outside, and the peppers are soft and a little bit caramelized.
- While the sausages are cooking, make the dressing. In a small jar, combine the honey, mustard, salt, and pepper, and whisk together.
- Put the kale in a serving dish, and top with the cooked sausages and peppers. Drizzle with the dressing.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
If you don't have a brand of sausage you can use, try this recipe with grilled chicken.
If you don't like kale, feel free to substitute spinach or another green.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator. They should stay fresh for about 3 days.
