Ingredients
  • 1 large bunch lacinato kale
  • ¾ cup bottled champagne vinaigrette, divided
  • 1 cup crumbled feta, divided
  • 1 Granny Smith apple

  2. Cut the kale into thin slivers and place it into a bowl.
  3. Add the dressing and ½ cup of the feta to a small blender or cup for using an immersion blender.
  4. Blend the feta and the dressing until smooth.
  5. Add 2 tablespoons of the feta dressing to the kale and massage it with your hands for 2 to 3 minutes, until the leaves turn darker, glossy, and shrink by about a third.
  6. Cut the apple into matchsticks.
  7. In a small bowl, toss the apple matchsticks with 2 tablespoons of the feta dressing to keep them from turning brown.
  8. Add the apples, remaining feta, and salad topper to the kale.
