What can be easier than this salad?

The salmon is pre cooked, the kale is fresh and raw the only thing that takes a bit of time is cooking the pasta and during that time you can prepare the fresh greens.

This Salad goes well as a side dish or served as the main course.

I recommended looking for an bunch of organic kale for this recipe. 

I find it tastes best in raw type salads a good place to find organic kale this time of year is at your local farmers market.

This is my favorite way to use a can of salmon and it goes so well with raw kale.

This salad can be enjoyed pretty much any time of year, but I know it will be best enjoyed on those long summer nights out on the back patio! 

I can picture it now 🙂 Can’t you?
