Tuscan Kale Salad

Another name for the Lacinata Kale is Tuscan Kale. It originated in Italy in couple hundred years ago. The flat bite size pieces of kale are hard to spear when attempting a forkful of salad. Doable, just have to work at it.

1 C. Kale, Lacinata variety, ripped into bite size pieces
1 ear of corn
1 clementine orange, peeled and chopped
10 grape tomatoes, halved
2 Tbsp. olives, sliced
2.5 oz chicken breast, baked, chopped up
2 Tbsp. Tuscan Italian Dressing (Annie's Naturals)

Cook the corn any way you want. Cut the kernels off and use in this recipe.
The chicken is a portion that was marinated, baked and frozen for my lunches. I thawed and heated a piece for this recipe.
Toss all ingredients.

Serve.

Rated a 4.1 on the Kale Scale.
