Kale Caesar Salad

No doubt Caesar salads are yummy, but they also tend to be filled with a lot of unhealthy fats. You can make a delicious Caesar salad with healthy fats (think cashews and tahini) that can be just as satisfying, or more-so! Try this Kale Caesar Salad with Tofu Croutons that drives up the nutritional score while maintaining all of the mouth-watering taste. Walnut Parmesan complements this salad perfectly. Bon Appetit!
