Fresh raw kale is the base of this lovely salad chock full of lightly caramelized dried fruit and smoked almonds, all glistening from just the right amount of a savory-sweet-tart pomegranate vinaigrette.  The most virtuous dish on the Thanksgiving table may just be the tastiest too!

I served this salad last year and, though the whole menu was scrumptious, I typically don’t duplicate.  But this dish made the cut and I will be serving it again!
