How to make a Christmas Salad

  1. Separate the kale from the tough stems then weigh out 50g. Massage the kale with the olive oil, salt and lemon juice to tenderise and allow it to soften a little. This makes it more digestible.

  2. Finely slice the radishes, slice the chicken and crumble the goats cheese. Mix the dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well. On a large serving plate, pour some of the dressing in a small bowl in the centre.

  3. Assemble the salad in a wreath shape, start with the tenderised kale, then sprinkle over the pea shoots and baby leaves, followed by the radish slices, chicken slices, crumbled goats cheese and pomegranate seeds. Then sprinkle over your keto hana cinnamon granola.

  4. Drizzle over the dressing and serve immediately.
