"I have kale coming out of my ears from the garden, so I was looking for another way to eat this most revered food. My cousin Pam helped me come up with the recipe, and it is delicious. It was even better the next day!" — QueenDump&Pour

Directions

Mix kale, red onion, and raisins in a large bowl.
Whisk yogurt, mayonnaise, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a bowl; pour over the kale mixture and toss to coat. Refrigerate 2 hours to overnight. Sprinkle sunflower seeds over the salad and toss to serve.

This was realllly good! I only had pumpkin seeds, and used splenda instead of sugar and diced red pepper instead of raisins to make it lower calorie. It was awesome!! I will make again!

Great recipe. I 'massaged' the torn kale in a bowl with a dash of kosher salt for 2-3 minutes to break down the fibres and make it more toothsome. I also added 1 Tbsp. of tahini to the dressing for an even creamier version and added dried cranberries. Thank you for an inspirational recipe!

I was looking for a "new" way to use the beautiful kale in my garden. This is a super easy and delicious way to do just that! The only change I made was to add some feta cheese (which I love), and leave out the raisins (which I hate!). After having it only two weeks ago, I am making it tonight for a "garden party" (where most of the ingrediants are from the garden), and I know my guests will gobble it up! Thank you for a delectable and easy recipe!

Definitely a yummy recipe. I used golden raisins and added some chopped celery and grapes. At first I thought there was too much dressing but when I ate it the next day I was glad I used it all. My husband wasn't a fan of the kale but that is okay...more for me!

I loved this salad. Didn't add onions or rasins. My husband added grapes. You could add any fruit to this. We didn't marinate the salad as long as it reccomened. We just made it for dinner and ate it. The salad was great, but I can see how marinating for awhile would make it better..
