This salad is way less of a "hey, please diet NOW" salad and WAY more of a "omg, I'm ready for some COLORS in my life!" salad! Full of healthy whole form fats, this is a great salad for people of all different dietary leanings! Add some sliced rotisserie chicken on top for extra protein if needed.

Instructions
For the Salad
In a large bowl, use your hands to scrunch and work the kale pieces with the sea salt for about one minute, or until the kale becomes glossier and breaks down from the abrasive salt! Set aside while you prep your other vegetables and the dressing. When ready, combine the remaining salad ingredients with the massaged kale and top with the lemon tahini dressing!
Lemon Tahini Dressing
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. The dressing will seem thin at first but just keep stirring!
