Ingredients:

1 bundle kale (I love the Italian dino kale but other varieties are good too)
½ red onion, diced
1 apple, chopped
½ cup cranberries
½ cup nuts (pecans, pine nuts, walnuts, your favorite), chopped and slightly toasted
1 tablespoon sea salt
Drizzle of olive oil
Juice from half of a lemon

Wash and cut the kale into very thin ribbons, removing the thicker midrib.

With your hands massage the kale with the added ingredients until it turns a really bright green.
Add the onion, cranberries and nuts.
Chill and enjoy.
