Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kale

    Wash and dry the Tuscan kale thoroughly. Remove the tough stems and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, mash the anchovy fillets with a fork. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Salad

    Drizzle the vinaigrette over the kale and toss to coat evenly. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the grated Grana Padano cheese and croutons over the salad. Toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a side or light main dish. Enjoy your Tuscan Kale Caesar!
