Tassilis Raw Spicy Kale Wrap Copycat Recipe

This spicy raw kale salad is the best kale recipe you’ve come across on the web; it’s always in heavy rotation at our house.

Salads can be tricky. Often times not filling enough to get you to the next meal but not this one. The kale makes this salad nice and hearty. The avocado gives you doses of healthy for you fats that keep you satiated for a good while instead of mayonnaise.

This Tassilis copycat spicy kale salad recipe is quick and easy to make and the cayenne pepper gives it an awesome kick.

Spicy Kale Salad The Vgn Way

You can eat as a salad (above) or wrap with vegan gluten-free pita wrap, almond wrap (below) or nori seaweed sheet.

This spicy kale mix is also a great side dish as well as a main dinner entree. Great with our gluten-free chickpea cornbread recipe.

Why This Is An Allergy Friendly Lunch Option.

This wrap is egg + dairy-free, nut-free, gluten-free and soy-free. It’s made without cheese, without mayonnaise and without anchovies in the salad dressing. 

Benefits of Kale

Kale is a superfood loaded in antioxidants. Including beta-carotene and vitamin C, as well as various flavonoids and polyphenols. Kale also has protein not as much has other protein rich vegetables but 1 cup of kale has 2.0g of protein compared to 8.6g in a cup of green peas.

Can You Eat Kale Raw?

Yes, like other leafy greens you can eat raw or cooked. Great in salads or smoothies. “Compared with raw kale, all cooking methods resulted in a significant reduction in total antioxidants and minerals, including calcium, potassium, iron, zinc, and magnesium” via Healthline.com

How To Store, Freeze & Reheat

Store in airtight container with lid in refrigerator. Kale leaves are hearty and normally massaged Kale would keep for ¾ days. However, this is a salad that has already been dressed and will only be good for ½ days maximum. Eat cold or at room temperature, do not heat or freeze.

      Hi Zoey! sometimes we end up with hard avocados if that's what you mean? We discovered that they soften up over a few days especially if they are near citrus fruit like lemons and limes. But when you're picking them out, look for darker colored avocados. They should give a little if you squeeze it lightly.
