Don?t balk at the word kale. The secret is baby kale leaves. They are tender and work well as the base of this salad. Salads are perfect for gluten-free diners on vacation. They are an easy meal when I?m eating out in an unfamiliar place. I ask for oil and vinegar on the side. At home, although my kids all eat salad, I?ve been trying to get them to eat kale for a while now to no avail. Kids don?t care about superfoods. They just want food that tastes good. You don?t have to tell them the ?lettuce? is really kale.
