You can bet your taste buds will be thanking you for this tasty spinach kale salad combo.

Plus its packed full of nutritional goodness.

Recently when I was making a batch of my sweet potato and kale hotpot I was struck with a predicament.

What to do with the leftover kale?

Maybe some chorizo, tomato lentil and kale soup for the freezer or perhaps a kale and pepper frittata brunch option?

Nope, I thought I would chance it with a brand new salad recipe.

Now what I mean by "chance it" is that I could actually be making this in the middle of a raging blizzard outside!

You see our climate in Scotland can be pretty unpredictable.

One day it can be beautiful blue skies.

The very next day rain and yet more rain......

So while the weather at the moment is reasonably dry and fair.

That could all change.......

And, I have been known to jinx the weather whenever I bring out a new salad!

Anyway, fingers crossed. I'd still eat this kale spinach salad all year round anyway no matter what the weather. It's just so delicious.

It's just life isn't it? Anything can happen!
