Notes

Instructions

Prepping veggies

1. Soak arame in tepid water for about 20 mins
2. Drain arame and add some salad dressing to cover/marinade it if you are prepping ahead/or while you cut avocados.
3. Wash kale and cut into pieces.
4. Steam kale, until just tender, let cool in a big bowl **if you have fresh, tender kale, no need to steam!**
5. Make salad dressing (can be done well in advance too!) in a blender or old school: mince garlic, chop chives and herbs and whisk liquid by hand.
6. Cut avocados into slices (leave pit in the bowl if you are doing ahead of serving)
7. Toss about 1/2 the dressing (save the rest for another salad!) with the arame and kale all together in that big bowl, till well-coated, sprinkle sesame seeds to distribute
8. Add avocado gently at the end to incorporate without breaking too much
9. Serve with more sesame seeds sprinkled on top for nice crunchy colourful
