This salad takes the idea of traditional tabbouleh and inverts the proportions. Instead of mostly tabbouleh with a little bit of parsley, this one is mostly green — and with kale standing in for parsley. This is a great kale salad that will keep for several days, even with the dressing on it!
This is a modified version of a New York Times recipe.

Not pictured, but on the second day I added feta cheese to the salad and loved it! This is a great way to add a little something extra.
