Kale and Fennel Salad

I had some leftover fennel and decided to create a simple salad using my favorite leafy green veggie. I got a fabulous gift today: persian lime olive oil and honey ginger balsamic vinegar. I decided to mix them to make a tangy citrus dressing for this simple salad. Pepitas (pumpkin seeds) are packed with B Vitamins, calcium, zinc and phosphorous and add crunch.
