This is truly a Vitamin C packed power salad! Vitamin C actually helps strengthen the collagen and elastin in our skin – the proteins that help give skin that youthful, smooth, elastic nature. The sweetness of maple syrup along with the acidity of the citrus fruits help to balance out any bitter flavor from the kale. A great salad to enjoy throughout the year!
