My kids love anything creamy – so much so they’ll even overlook the kale leaves in this dish. Normally they turn their noses up to kale salad, but not when it comes to this Creamy Kale Caesar Salad recipe. Score!
Creamy Kale Caesar Salad
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Remove and discard large stems from the kale and shred the remaining leaves. Toss in a large bowl with the toasted walnuts and set aside.
-
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the sour cream, cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour it over the kale mixture and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

From the picture it looks like you added grated Parmesan cheese and croutons on top. Is that correct? Do you make your own croutons or have you found a good store bought alternative?
Thanks!

September 16, 2015 at 3:35 pmThanks for this, Lisa. I have such a hard time getting my kids eat any vegetables other than green beans and peas (better than nothing). I’m a big fan of heavier greens like kale so this will work well.

January 25, 2017 at 10:07 amThis looks like a delicious dressing recipe, but shouldn’t a caesar dressing have anchovy?

January 31, 2017 at 1:04 pmSure, that is a typical caesar dressing ingredient but I always leave it out, too. ;)

April 5, 2017 at 2:58 amI really want to try this, but my son has nut allergies. I wonder if I can substitute some sort of seeds?
