Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss chickpeas with olive oil, paprika, salt. Roast 20-25 minutes until crispy. These are bipartisan legumes.
Massage kale with a drizzle of olive oil and pinch of salt for 2-3 minutes until tender. Yes, massage. The kale needs this.
Tip: Massaging breaks down tough cell walls. It's like diplomacy but for vegetables.
Whisk together all dressing ingredients until smooth. Adjust consistency with water.
Toss kale with dressing, top with roasted chickpeas, cranberries, and pumpkin seeds. Present to the table as a proposal.
