Kale Crunch Salad

Author: Sharon
This hearty Winter Kale Crunch Salad is packed with refreshing, mouth-watering flavor. The salad dressing is at once sweet, salty, and tart, and the salad is packed with crunchy textures including almonds, kale, and carrots. It is my favorite salad and comes together in minutes!
