Lemony Chickpea Kale Salad with Prosciutto with Honey Dijon Dressing, Parmesan & Sunflower Seeds

This hearty salad is all you need for a light-yet-satisfying lunch. You’ll toss fresh kale in a lemony honey-Dijon dressing spiked with as many chili flakes as you like (or none at all—you’re the chef!). You’ll add tender chickpeas and crunchy sunflower seeds, and top with two of our very favorite salad add-ons: savory-salty prosciutto and crisp croutons.

Instructions

  1. • Wash and dry produce.

    you would knead dough) until leaves are tender, 1 minute. Drain and
    rinse chickpeas; thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Roughly tear
    prosciutto into bite-size pieces.
  3. • In a large bowl, whisk together honey Dijon dressing, juice from half
    the lemon (whole lemon for 4 servings), a pinch of salt and pepper, and
    as many chili flakes as you like.
  4. • To bowl with dressing mixture, add kale, chickpeas, Parmesan, and
    sunflower seeds; toss to combine.
  5. • Divide salad between bowls. Top with prosciutto and croutons. Serve.
