Shredded Kale Pistachio Salad with Tahini-Miso Dressing

Greens on greens on greens. I love to prepare hearty salads that will hold up through Friday and this kale pistachio salad does just that.  The hearty kale is perfectly balanced with a creamy tahini miso dressing and pistachios, scallions, and sesame seeds give the salad dimension and crunch.

This kale salad serves four as a side, but can easily be made a meal for two with the addition of avocado, protein, and/or grain of choice. For non-vegans, chicken or canned tuna pair well here. For vegans, I like roated tempeh or roasted, crunchy chickpeas.
