KALE, AVOCADO, AND BLACK BEAN SALAD



Kale, Avocado, and Black Bean Salad image

Our family loves this when we are in the mood for something healthy and satisfying. Even my meat-loving husband loved it! My vegetarian daughter thought this was awesome too. Next time I might try adding cranberries, or substituting pepitas for the pecans.
