Kale Fruit Chicken Salad
I first spiced some chx breast strips by shaking them in a bag with pepper, paprika, coriander, cardamon, cinnamon, and za'atar a Mid-Eastern spice mix based in thyme, which I got at Barbur World Foods. I found this store a neat place to shop; lots of new things - including Lavash, but that has nothing to do with Kale, so you can look that up on your own, too. After the chx is dusted with spices, I stir fried them and set aside. I only used, in the salad, 2 oz of the 8 oz of chx strips.
Layer from the bottom up:1 kiwi fruit, skinned, chopped up
1 plum, red, chopped up.
1/3 of a big yellow sweet pepper, cut into big pieces that could be poked with a fork.
2 Tbsp olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing (Safeway Select; no sugar added)
Top with 2 oz of the spiced, cooked chicken breast.
Rated a 4.75 on the Kale Scale.
Pluot and Kale Salad 
I used a big pluot which is a cross between a plum and apricot. More plum than 'cot. There is no nutrition info available yet for pluots, so I used Plum when figuring the calories.
