Combining blanched broccoli rabe with massaged kale makes for a nice twist on a typical kale salad. It gives the greens a little extra dimension.

Broccoli Rabe and Crunchy Cauliflower with a Lemon Tahini Dressing
A delicious and refreshing side to any main course, this dish is all about contrasting flavors and textures.
