Raw Greek Kale Salad
Greek salad is a perfect meal to me. It is my go to quick lunch or lazy dinner. So I got to thinking, you all know my affinity for kale… well what if I combined kale into my perfect meal, could it be even more perfect?? Well, yes. Yes, it can.
Greece is one of my most favorite places on the planet. Today, I would like to transport myself there. Particularly, I am dreaming of the rocky coast of Crete.
This is the Sea of Crete… Stare deeply into this picture and you can imagine jumping right in!

So, a Greek salad for lunch and a healthy imagination got me through.
