This Avocado-Edamame Kale Salad has “spring” written all over it. But you can enjoy this salad all year round.

TIPS & TRICKS:

I used baby kale in this salad because it soaks up the vinaigrette very quickly. Feel free to use whatever greens you have on hand.
If you can’t find rainbow radishes, you can always substitute it for red radishes. It’s all good!
You can always throw on some sunflower seeds, or nuts, for more texture.
The vinaigrette will last in the refrigerator for about four days, so make extra! It’s so yummy!
