Marinated Kale Salad

For those of you reading this and thinking it just sounds gross and "healthy", you're f*cking wrong and that's all to it. First off, you can put tons of soy sauce / tamari and oil in it and I've never had anything that tamari and oil didn't make tasty. Secondly, it's just really good and if you can't see that, then you have some growing up to do.

1 large or two small bunches kale
juice of one lemon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup oil (canola, olive... it's all good)
3 tablespoons roasted sesame seeds
tamari
sesame oil

Wash and tear the kale into bite-size pieces. Pour lemon juice and toss salt on kale. Massage until kale wilts (depending on the kale, it may wilt a lot or a little. Add the rest of the ingredients, tamari and sesame oil to taste. Two quote hordes of old ladies describing salad: "This salad is better on the second day!"

You can add more veggies: my favorite are grated carrot, thinly-sliced cucumber, and avocado. Just sort of lay the veggies in there gently. Enjoy!
