INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups kale, chopped
  • 1/2 pint tomatoes, halved
  • 3 slices extra thick-cut turkey bacon
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, olive oil, and lemon juice. Mix until you get a smooth mixture and add salt to taste.
  2. Toss the kale leaves with the dressing and use your hands to evenly coat for 2-3 minutes. Set aside and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.

  4. Once the turkey bacon is ready, transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels. Cut each slice of turkey bacon in half.
  5. Add the tomatoes to the salad bowl and mix until theyโ€™re fully coated in the dressing.
  6. Divide the salad between two plates, top with cooked turkey bacon slices, and serve immediately.
