Kale Avocado Pantry Salad for One

/

I came up with this recipe when I found myself hungry, craving greens, and with a nearly empty fridge.

I call this a Kale Avocado Pantry Salad because all of the ingredients, with the exception of the kale and avocado, are my pantry staples.

Salads don't have to be complicated or take a long time to prepare. With a pantry stocked with healthy essentials, you can create a simple, quick, and delicious salad with only two ingredients that need to be purchased ahead of time.
