Make Gusto 101's and Gusto 501's beloved classic. The Cavolo Nero Salad is comprised of organic Lacinato kale, zante currants, toasted pine nuts, pecorino, parmigiano and lemon vinaigrette. Dubbed as being not your ordinary kale salad, this dish is a favourite and a long-time staple on the Gusto menu.
Note: Letting the kale sit or gently massaging the leaves produces a tender leafy salad.
