Warm Kale and Caramelized Mushroom Salad
Warm Kale and Caramelized Mushroom Salad is a really great winter salad. Who says salad has to be chilled? A warm salad can make a really delicious meal in winter. For this recipe, I use assorted mushrooms such as beech mushroom and champignon. Also you can use porcini, shiitake cremini, chanterelle or oyster. If any of the mushrooms have a woody stem, I trim them off and thinly slice the mushrooms.Â
I start this salad by sautéing mushrooms in oil. Then I add butter and shallots and continue to cook them until the shallots are soft and translucent. I then add sherry and once it has almost fully evaporated, I remove the skillet from the heat. I make a dressing from olive oil with the sherry vinegar, mustard, and honey. I then assemble the salad and top with goat cheese. Delicious!
To make Warm Kale and Caramelized Mushroom Salad, you will need the following ingredients:

Melts in your mouth it's so good! I had this with some bread chips and it was perfection on a plate.
Super freaking delicious!! One of the best mushrooms salads I've ever had and even BETTER because I made it myself!
Very good idea, never thought to add mushrooms to my salad nor honey and mustard in the same bowl, I like it a lot.
Loving all these healthy meals on here, I'm slowly getting on a decent diet now because of this website.
Could not be happier with this kale caramelized mushroom salad, most delicious thing I've ever had.
This is good even cold, perfect for a light lunch or breakfast.
Extremely zesty, this is the perfect light salad you need in your daily diet, would totally recommend.
I didn't use goat cheese because it's too pricey instead I just used some shredded cheese for under a dollar and it was great.
Very filling and easy to make, I love it a lot.
Affordable and delicious just like the chicken broccoli and mushroom stir fry, both my favorites.
