Oil Free Rainbow Kale Salad

Oil-free dressings are my favorite ones at the moment, it's amazing you can make delicious dressings without oil and they taste even better!

Although I love kale with all my heart, it's really hard to find it here in Spain, that's why I don't use it very often.

I tried to make raw vegan salads a few months ago, but I didn't like them until I learnt how to make delicious raw vegan dressings, it's really easy! To make this dressing I used water, tamari, avocado and lemon juice, it tastes like heaven!

There's one thing about kale salads, they're perfect to eat on the go because unlike other salads, the longer you leave it, the better it tastes and it won't go soggy.

Now it's time to massage the kale for at least 2 or 3 minutes. It can sound weird, but you need to do this if you want the kale to be soft. It's so therapeutic and relaxing! Then you just need to add your favorite ingredients and enjoy your salad.

Tips:

• If you can't find kale or is expensive in your area, feel free to use other leafy greens.
• I love this raw vegan avocado dressing, but other dressings will work too, I also love my tahini dressing or a simple vinaigrette.
• Use your favorite ingredients, it's impossible to go wrong with this salad!
