Follow the proportions, but liberate yourself with the ingredients! If you don’t have a specific ingredient listed, try one of the substitutions. The Miso-Maple Dressing is divine, but any dressing you have on hand or like to prepare will work wonderfully with this recipe.

Ingredients

Scale

Salad:

  • 1/3 cup yellow onion, very thinly sliced (sub with red onion)
  • 1 cup carrot, shredded
  • 1/3 cup cucumber pickles, diced (sub with any pickles)
  • 1 bunch kale, leaves stripped and shredded (sub other hearty winter greens)
  • 1/2 cup raisins (sub with black currants)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, drained (sub with black or white beans)
  • 1 can Alaska Gold Albacore Canned Tuna, broken up

Miso-Maple Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons brown rice vinegar (sub with lemon juice)
  • 2 tablespoons, white miso
  • 1 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon maple syrup (sub with honey)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 garlic clove, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Toss the salad ingredients in a large bowl.
  2. To make the Miso-Maple Dressing, combine ingredients in a jar and shake vigorously until blended together.
