Kale and apricot salad

Roast a few halved apricots with a drop of olive oil in the dip - 15 mins in moderate oven.

Slice the stalky bits off kale leaves then 'massage' olive oil into the leaves for a few minutes. Add salad leaves - or shredded cabbage. Mix some chopped tomatoes and mozzarella with the leaves. Place the cooled apricots on top. Toast some pumpkin seeds in a pan that have been mixed with tbsp olive oil, tbsp brown sugar and tbsp dark soy sauce. Sprinkle the seeds with fresh basil leaves on top of the salad. Voila 🥗

That looks so colourful. I'm not a fan of kale. Seeing that, I'm wondering if I should give it another try :)

What a pretty plate, I'm also not a fan of kale, but may have to try it now.

What a lovely combination of colours and flavours here making a really unusual and tempting salad. Great idea and thanks for posting. 👍

It is quite substantial because of the mozzarella and toasted seeds. The kale is great, too, as once you'v e rubbed the oil into the kale leaves, it's not tough at all. The roasted apricots provide that tang and colour against the dark green kale, blobs of mozzarella and red of the tomatoes. I've never had any complaints with this one! 🥗
