Vegan Recipes: Kale and Avocado Salad

Tonight for dinner I was running like a chicken with my head cut off trying to figure out what I was going to fix. I am one who is not too shabby in the kitchen, and I can whip something up from whatever is in the fridge and have it actually taste good. Tonight was one of those "see what you have" kinda nights. There was kale, tomatoes, avocados, almonds, and some of my favorite seeds: sesame, chia and flax. Looking at everything I knew it would make a great salad, so I de-ribbed the kale and diced the tomatoes, poured on the seeds and sliced up the avocado. For the dressing I did something a little... strange. I whipped up my Veganaise with some organic yellow mustard. It actually was delicious on the salad. 

(Sorry about the pictures, I took them with my phone so they are not the best quality.)


It was so delicious. On the side Jer had a bowl of strawberries and I had a nectarine. I love all this fresh fruit we are getting from this time of year! 

My whole reason to share this with you is to show you that you can whip up a vegan meal even in a few minutes. Keep the essentials on hand, do a little preparation before the week starts and you will never have to eat out and you will love your food! 


Have a wonderful week everyone!
