Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    In a large bowl, combine the chopped kale and spinach. Toss gently to mix.

  2. 2

    Add Fruits and Cheese

    Add the diced apples and crumbled goat cheese to the bowl with greens. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Toast the Pepitas

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pepitas until they are golden and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

  4. 4

    Combine and Dress

    Sprinkle the toasted pepitas over the salad. Drizzle with cranberry dressing and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve
