– uncooked freekeh – kale – dried cranberries – carrots – fresh blueberries – yellow pepper – walnuts – reduced-fat feta cheese – celery
To speed up the prep, we usually buy packaged matchstick carrots. Just line ’em up and run your knife through them to create perfect, tiny bits.
To easily remove the tough stems from kale, just fold each leaf in half and then either cut along the stem to separate it from the leaf, or gently tear the leaf away from the stem.
We also chopped our kale more finely than in the original, made a couple tiny ingredient swaps, and then absolutely loaded in the other goodies, too.
From crunchy walnuts, celery, carrots and yellow peppers … to sweet blueberries and dried cranberries … to the salty hint of feta.
The result is a vibrant, chopped confetti salad. And, ya know – confetti is perfect for celebrating!
