This kale salad with cranberries is called "circus salad" in our house because it is so colorful and fun! This is a super wholesome salad with all-natural ingredients and no added oils or sugar. Try using quinoa instead of couscous, add warm asparagus on top, or stir in roasted, diced sweet potatoes and onions for even more color and nutrients. This keeps well for days - I usually make a big batch and have it for lunch through the week.

Italian Tuna Spread
This Italian tuna spread recipe makes a great addition to an antipasti spread. Serve it with crostini, Melba toast, or crackers at room temperature. Store it, covered, in the refrigerator. To reuse, bring it back to room temperature; do not microwave to reheat; it will turn to goop. This also makes the best tuna fish sandwich you will ever have. Use iceberg lettuce, toasted bread, and a thin slice of tomato. Yum!
