Apple-Walnut Kale Salad

Combine 1 tablespoon cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon walnut oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add 4 cups torn kale and 2 cups torn Swiss chard; toss. Let stand 10 minutes. Add 1 cup sliced Granny Smith apple, 1/2 cup sliced celery, 1/4 cup sliced red onion, 1 ounce crumbled blue cheese, and 2 tablespoons toasted walnuts; toss.

Serves 6 (1 c.); 94 calories.

VERDICT:  I made quite a few substitutions based on what I had on hand, but the general premise of the salad, and the peppery dressing, are both solid.  Keep, and note variations under Lemony Kale Salad.
