Rainbow Kale Salad

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A Clean Eat Kates original, here is a gorgeous rainbow kale filled with nutrients to prepare you for the parade!

Ingredients (serves 4-6):
– 4-6 cups of kale, chopped in to bite-sized pieces
– 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
– 1 tbsp lemon juice
– 1 English cucumber
– 1 cup shredded carrots
– ½ head of purple cabbage

Directions:
1. Fill a large salad bowl with the kale and drizzle the olive oil and lemon on top. With clean hands, “massage” the EVOO and lemon into kale, covering it evenly and softening the leaves. You only need to do this for about 1-2 minutes.
2. Chop your cucumber, cabbage and carrots in to bite-sized pieces – this is my biggest tip for making great salads!
3. Add the cucumber, cabbage and carrots in to the salad bowl and mix well with your favourite dressing – or you could even skip the dressing if you prefer. Enjoy!

Stonewall Inn Swizzle
This year was the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. In June, Heritage of Pride hosted “Stonewall 50 – WorldPride” in New York City, where it is estimated that 150,000 people marched and 5 million people visited the city during the month. Here we present to you a Stonewall Inn Swizzle to commemorate the 50th anniversary.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients:
3 oz of pineapple coconut juice
3 oz of coconut rum (you can also use light or dark rum here instead)
1 oz of mango juice
1 oz of orange juice
splash of grenadine (mainly just for looks)
lime slices, mint, strawberry slices, orange zest for garnish
4 dashes Angostura bitters
crushed ice
6-8 mint leaves

Directions:
Combine all juices (pineapple coconut, mango, and orange) and rum. Then stir.

Pour over ice and add a splash of grenadine for color. The grenadine will fall to the bottom and give the drink a unique ombre look.

Then, add lime, orange zest, mint, strawberry for garnish (optional).

Directions:
For each smoothie layer:
Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Add more liquid to help it blend if it’s too thick.
Transfer the smoothie to a bowl or container, rinse the blender and prep the next smoothie.

To assemble popsicles:
Carefully layer each color smoothie in a popsicle mold in rainbow order. Layering the smoothies in the mold is easy. Use a spoon or tablespoon to scoop the smoothie mixture into the mold. It’s natural for the layers to blend a bit, but spooning the smoothies into the mold versus pouring the smoothie in from a glass leaves better results.

Once the molds are filled, add the sticks and freeze the popsicles overnight. To get the popsicles to release from the mold, fill your kitchen sink with room temperature water. Place the mold in the water, making sure the water does not go above the top of the mold. Allow the mold to sit in the water for a few seconds. Begin to wiggle a popsicle free. If it feels tough, allow them to set in the water a few more seconds.

Once all of the popsicles are removed from the mold, enjoy or wrap the extras in plastic wrap and return to the freezer.
