Farmer's Market Salad w/ Lemon Pepper Dressing

Get the freshest organic ingredients you can find for maximum flavor. We ate some junk food at a party but came home and ate this for dinner; an instant sigh of relief! The kale is softened by sitting in some o & v while you chop the other vegetables, and the dressing is a wonderful combination of pantry staples. Add some cooked steak or chicken to the top if desired!*
