I think I am a master at making kale salad. Twenty years ago, I would say that I was more of a master of sauteed kale maker, still am by the way. So much so that my Haitian grandmother would request my kale; if you know anything about Haitian people, all foreign food is questionable. I know I had a winner. When I would see her drink the liquid like it was water on a hot summer day. This is also why I know I am a master kale salad maker, my salads have children deny trips to McDonald's (true story), and have people ask for seconds or even scraps bowls for salad.
I made this Kiwi Kale salad while I was in Brooklyn for a trip. I was staying with a friend, and I promised to make tons of vegan food as part of my stay. I wanted to make my Mandarin kale salad, but I did not have access to many of the ingredients. So this Kale Kiwi salad was born and is now a fan favorite.
