Kale has become known as the “Queen of the Greens” containing high levels of Iron, Vitamin K, C and A as well as powerful anti-oxidants (particularly Lutein – great for supporting eye health) and anti-inflammatory properties. Combined with nutrient dense broccoli and a dressing of tahini which is high in calcium this (almost) raw superfood salad is a winner for nutritional value.
