Dressing
Directions
Add all dressing ingredients into a blender and blend until combined or add all ingredients to a mason jar and shake to combine. Make it and store in the fridge until ready to prep the full salad.
In a large mixing bowl, combine kale with about 1⁄2 of the dressing and use your hands to massage the dressing into the kale. Add more dressing as needed (you may not need all of it). Reserve any leftover dressing for another use.
Add pomegranate seeds and goat cheese to the salad bowl (saving a little of each for topping), toss together and season with sea salt and pepper to taste. Add more dressing if needed. Transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle with nuts, additional pomegranate seeds and goat cheese.
