Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Candied Pecans

    In a small saucepan, combine the raw pecans, agave syrup, salt, and Aleppo chili flakes. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the pecans are coated and slightly toasted, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Kale

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

  3. 3

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and nutritional yeast until well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt if desired.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    Pour the dressing over the kale and massage the leaves for about 2-3 minutes until they are tender and well coated. Add the candied pecans and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a side dish or main course. Enjoy your Vegan Pecan Kale Caesar!
