    Miso Kale Caesar Salad for Healthy Fast Casual at Home

    0
    By Contributed on October 8, 2018 Dairy-Free Recipes, Entrees, Salad

    We often tout summer as the big produce season, but the cooler months are when some healthy heavy hitters reach their peak. Kale, for example, is a top source of dairy-free calcium, vitamin K, vitamin A, and vitamin C. In fact, some medical experts believe it’s better for bone health than dairy milk! And its nutritious benefits are augmented in this savory miso kale Caesar salad.

    Miso Kale Caesar Salad Recipe - a light, healthy plant-based meal with protein options. Dairy-free, gluten-free, and darn close to paleo

    This recipe provides a big wallop of vitamins and minerals, and can even be a wonderful light meal with one of the suggested protein toppers. But it might have some new-to-you ingredients.

    Eat Dairy Free - Your Essential Cookbook for Everyday Meals, Snacks, and SweetsDaikon radish is a large Japanese radish that looks like a tuber. Most major grocers do carry it, but you might need to poke around the produce section.

    Miso is a salted, fermented Japanese condiment that is typically sold refrigerated. It is usually soy-based, but there are soy-free brands available.

    And tahini is a shelf-stable sesame seed paste or “butter.” It can be found near the peanut butter, or in some stores you might see it among the Middle Eastern cuisine.

    Each of these ingredients adds to the richness and flavor depth of this plant-based miso kale Caesar salad.
