Apple and Goji Berry Kale Salad (GF, DF)

This Apple and Goji Berry Kale Salad tastes like fall with every bite!  When you “massage” the kale with your hands, the kale becomes sweeter and softer, so don’t skip this step.  Sweet apple, crunchy sunflower and pumpkin seeds, and chewy and tart goji berries are a match made in heaven.  And if you’re anything like me, you eat salads for the awesome toppings 😉 And this salad delivers the best toppings!

Easy Apple and Spiced Grape Chutney

Nothing tastes more like the comfort of Fall than apples and spices!  It’s too easy to make your own chutney, which serves as the perfect accompaniment to Quick-Brined Rosemary Pork Chops.  Add even more flavor using spiced jam from the Preserving Place, a beautiful locally-owned and operated artisan store located in the Westside district of Atlanta and conveniently ships all across the country!
