Receta Chopped Kale Salad Recipe with Gorgonzola & Dijon Yogurt Dressing

Everything is better with Gorgonzola cheese! Perk up this healthy, crunchy kale salad with creamy Gorgonzola, roasted red peppers and an easy Dijon yogurt dressing.

It was a proud parenting moment when I found my younger son (T) sitting on the side of our raised garden beds, chewing on a raw kale leaf.

“What is this, Mum? It’s pretty good. Can I give some to my friends?”

Of course, his baffled friends looked at him as though he was Looney tunes. Thankfully, that didn’t deter my little veggie lover. He started begging for kale smoothies every afternoon. Happy to oblige.

Last year was the first time that we grew kale in our garden and no idea that it would bounce back on its own. It had been covered by a blanket of snow for most of the winter. The good luck garden gnomes were watching out for our cruciferous friends!

I’ve always made salad with light vinaigrettes, like in my strawberry and feta cheese, pomegranate and avocado and grape and feta cheese versions. It was time to bust out something a little different.

I looked in my fridge and pantry, and just started pulling out ingredients – yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, agave nectar and olive oil. Whisk…and done!

Store-bought roasted red peppers can be used, but it’s so much cheaper to make your own at home. Check out my post on How to: Roast a Bell Pepper for the easy step-by-step directions. I always make extras and use them in sandwiches, salads and pasta dishes.
