We love a hearty kale salad and this is one of our favorites. Obviously, the fresh blackened Cajun shrimp are the star of this meal, but it’s the jalapeño, honey, and cumin dressing that gets tossed into the kale that steals the meal for us. The salad is topped with toasty pepitas for a nutty crunch, crumbled feta for salty creaminess, and cherry tomatoes for a little pop of freshness. This dish is meant to be eaten as a salad with the shrimp served cold or warm— totally up to you. If you like them warm, Chef recommends microwaving them for 45 seconds, no more than one minute— the little guys heat up quick!
