Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups kale, chopped
  • 2 cups corn, grilled or roasted
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the chopped kale, corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.
  4. Add the diced avocado and feta cheese, gently mixing to avoid mashing the avocado.
