Instructions
  1. Wash kale and add to salad spinner to remove excess water. Note - if using large kale leaves, remove ribs, and cut across width of leaves, slicing into strips. Add kale to a large bowl.
  2. Cut orange or tangelo in half. Squeeze juice over kale. Add oil. If using, add salt and pepper, to taste.
  3. With clean hands, "massage" the kale with the juice and oil mixture until tender.
  4. Divide "massaged" kale among two pasta bowls or large dinner plates along with excess juice and oil mixture. Set aside.
  5. Slice turkey into strips and add half to each kale salad.
  6. Wash bell pepper. Remove stem, membranes, and seeds and discard. Chop red bell pepper and top each salad with half.
  7. Using a zester, zest one half of each orange or tangelo rind on top of bell pepper.
  8. Note - add any extra low calorie vegetables of your choice without changing the calorie count of the salad by much.
