Ingredients
- 6 cups kale (stems removed, chopped)
- 1.5 cups broccoli slaw mix
- 0.5 cup almonds (slivered or sliced)
- 0.25 cup sunflower seeds
- 0.25 cup unsweetened dried cranberries (keto-approved, such as stevia-sweetened)

- 1.5 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped kale and broccoli slaw mix. Massage the kale gently with your hands for 1-2 minutes to soften it.
Add the slivered almonds, sunflower seeds, and unsweetened dried cranberries to the bowl. Mix to combine.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, monk fruit sweetener, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Divide into serving bowls and enjoy immediately, or refrigerate and serve chilled.
