Instructions

Bread Croutons Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Cut the bread leftovers into cubes or small slices.
  3. Into a mixing bowl, combine the bread cubes, olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Transfer the bread cubes to the baking tray and bake for 15 minutes or until crispy golden.

Salad Instructions

  1. Into a bowl, add the shredded kale, and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Massage the kale for 3 minutes or until soft. Brush the lemon juice over the avocado.
  2. Add the kale, iceberg lettuce, avocado, and bread croutons to a large bowl.
  3. Add all the dressing ingredients into a small blender and blend until smooth.
  4. Drizzle the salad with the dressing and garnish with sesame seeds and vegan parmesan.

Notes

Remove the stems from the kale before shredding and massaging it.

Brush the lemon juice into the avocado slices to prevent the avocado from turning brown.

You can replace the grapeseed oil with sunflower oil.
