• 16 ounces Nature’s Greens Kale
• 3 medium pears, chopped
• 3 cups cherry tomatoes
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup red wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 1/2 cups sunflower seeds
• 1 cup chickpeas, crumbled

Wash and chop kale. Mix chopped kale with fresh pears and tomatoes. Chill until ready to serve. In the meantime, combine canned pears, salt, and vinegar in a blender; cover and process until smooth. While processing, add olive oil in a steady stream. When ready to serve, pour dressing over kale mixture, tossing to combine. Stir in sunflower seeds and chick peas just before serving. Season with coarsely ground black pepper.
