Start by washing the kale leaves thoroughly. Remove the tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the kale, diced apple, dried cranberries, and chopped pecans.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and pepper until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the kale mixture and toss everything together. Make sure the kale is well coated in that delicious dressing!
If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese on top for an added punch of flavor.
Let the salad sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the kale to soften a bit and soak up all those yummy flavors.
