Ingredients \u2661<\/h3>\n
  • 10-12 cups raw chopped kale<\/li>
  • 1 (10oz) bag angel hair cabbage <\/li>
  • 1\/4 cup Chick-Fil-A apple cider vinegar dressing<\/li>
  • Cooked chicken (grilled, rotisserie, crispy)<\/li>
  • Honey<\/li>
  • Mustard or <\/strong>Buffalo<\/li>
  • Optional toppings: Almonds, everything but the bagel seasonings, craisins<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Directions \u2661<\/h3>\n
    1. Wash Kale and make sure it is completely dry before using. I prefer kale on stalks as can easily cut off the stalks but that is just personal preference. In a large mixing bowl layer kale, cabbage, and, dressing. Using your hands (gloves recommend) incorporate dressing into the kale. Note you might need more dressing<\/strong> but truly you do not want your kale to be heavily dressed it will naturally break down and you will use other dressing on it. <\/li>
    2. Refrigerate for 2 hours. This is optional but will help kale become softer<\/li>
    3. Make dressing for the top. This is a 2:1 ratio 2 parts honey to 1 part mustard OR buffalo. This dressing is a little sweeter because kale can be sour but adjust to your liking!<\/li>
    4. Prepare your salad Kale, chicken, honey mustard dressing, almonds, everything but the bagel seasoning is the way its pictured but make it your own!<\/li><\/ol><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

      My favorite chicken for this recipe is Sam\u2019s Club Southern Style Chicken Bites. I throw them in the air fryer and they are delish<\/em>. They do have a pretty noticeable pickle flavor, though, so if you don\u2019t like pickles, these probably aren\u2019t for you! Just Bare chicken bites are another great option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
