KALE & HONEYED MACADAMIA NUTS


One of my favorite salads this Summer is KALE with HONEYED MACADAMIA NUTS. I found this recipe while shopping at Whole Foods.  Subtly sweet and oh so healthy!

Ingredients: Serves 6 
2 tablespoons honey , divided 
1/2 cup roasted and salted macadamia nuts 
2 bunches kale , thick stems removed, leaves thinly sliced 
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 
1 1/2 tablespoon creamy almond butter 

Method: 
Preheat the oven to 350°F. 
In a medium bowl, toss 1 tablespoon honey and nuts with 1 teaspoon water. Bake on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet, tossing two or three times, until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool and roughly chop. Arrange kale in a large, deep skillet. In a medium bowl, whisk together vinegar, almond butter, remaining honey and 2 tablespoons water. Drizzle over kale, cover and cook over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until wilted and just tender, about 5 minutes. Scatter nuts over the top and serve.
