Hiding between leaves of lettuce are often tons of cheese, white-bread croutons and thick, heavy dressing. In this <a href=\"https:\/\/dailyburn.com\/life\/recipes\/healthy-salad-recipes\/\" target=\"_blank\">healthier version<\/a>, we swapped out romaine for nutrient-dense kale, did away with the croutons, and tossed in crunchy roasted chickpeas instead. The dressing has so much flavor and creaminess, you won\u2019t even realize most of the cheese was cut out of it. A juicy grilled chicken breast rounds out this salad for a complete meal that\u2019s worthy of your tastebuds.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_31857\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31857\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-31857 \" title=\"Kale Caesar Salad\" alt=\"Kale Caesar Salad\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-life.dailyburn.com\/life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/10045455\/Caesar-Salad_PS_2.jpg\" width=\"620\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-life.dailyburn.com\/life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/10045455\/Caesar-Salad_PS_2.jpg 620w, https:\/\/cdn-life.dailyburn.com\/life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/10045455\/Caesar-Salad_PS_2-300x193.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-31857\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Perry Santanachote<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b>Kale Chicken Caesar Salad Recipe<\/b>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><i>Serves 4<\/i><\/p>\n<p>[skinnybox]<\/p>\n<p>Total time: 15 minutes\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><b>Ingredients \u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">2 anchovy fillets<br \/>1 garlic clove, finely minced<br \/>2 tablespoons olive oil<br \/>1\/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt\u00a0<br \/>2 tablespoons Dijon mustard<br \/>1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar<br \/>1 teaspoon lemon juice<br \/>1\/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper<br \/>1\/8 teaspoon kosher salt<br \/>5 cups chopped kale<br \/>1 (14-ounce) can hearts of palm, rinsed and thinly cut crosswise<br \/>1 apple, cored and thinly sliced<br \/>1\/2 cup roasted chickpeas<br \/>1\/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese<br \/>12 ounces grilled or baked chicken breast, sliced<\/p>\n<h3><b>Preparation<\/b> <b><\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>With a mortar and pestle or a spoon and bowl, smash the anchovy, garlic and oil into a paste.
