One of my favourite kale bowls out there. It might look like a big green salad bowl, but the flavours are so delicious and bursting with goodness, it will keep your mind and body bursting with happiness!
Ingredients
  • 2 large handfuls of kale
  • Handful of mint leaves
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ head broccoli, chopped into thin florets
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 avocado, flesh scooped out
  • 35g almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped
  • Salt + pepper to taste
Dressing
  • 50g goat’s feta
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • 2-3 tablespoons water
  • Salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Start by making your dressing. Simply add all the ingredients into a small blender or food processor and blitz until smooth and runny. If you’d like a more creamy dressing add 2 tablespoons of water, and for a more sauce-y one, add 3 tablespoons. Taste, adjust seasoning, and set aside until ready to drizzle.
  2. Shred your kale leaves and add to a large bowl with the mint, lemon juice and ½ tablespoon olive oil. If you’re having your broccoli raw, add it now as well. Toss everything together, massaging the kale as it starts to get softer and more tender. Divide into two bowls and set aside while you make the rest of the salad.
  3. If you’re not having your broccoli raw, boil some water in a pan and place a steamer basket with your broccoli on it. Steam for about 2-3 minutes, just until slightly tender but still with a bite. Remove from the pan and set aside to cool and then toss with the kale salad.
  4. Add your eggs to the pan with the boiling water and boil until your desired done-ness. 3-4 minutes for soft, and 5-6 minutes for set. Carefully drain the water and run the eggs under cold water to stop the cooking process. One they’re cool enough to handle, peel and add to the bowl with the kale salad.
  5. Place each half of the avocado in each bowl, sprinkle over the almonds, some salt + pepper, and drizzle the dressing. I also like to add a layer under the eggs, for an extra sauciness!
