My love affair with kale continues. Butcher and Bee, a local restaurant here in Charleston, makes a kale slaw that is so freaking good. I order a side of it every time I eat there. This was my attempt to create a similar version and I must say it comes pretty darn close. They serve theirs with crushed peanuts on top but I didn't have any on hand- so add them if you wish. This saves well in the fridge for a few days although mine only lasted two days I devoured it. You could easily sub shredded napa cabbage for the Brussels Sprouts if you prefer. It makes a delicious lunch served with the Tomato Ricotta Toast I posted Monday.
Enjoy!
