Gather the kale into a tight bunch and slice into thin ribbons. Place the shredded kale into a bowl, drizzle with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt. Use your hands to get in there and massage the leaves. That's right, massage it! This helps to break down the fibers in the kale, making it softer, tastier and easier to digest.
Add the beets, carrots, apples, walnuts, and cherries to the bowl. Crumble in the blue cheese.
To make the dressing, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, honey, salt and pepper until the honey is dissolved. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until it's emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salad a little bit at a time and toss until it's coated to your liking. I take mine lightly dressed, while Chaser likes his drowning, so I always leave a little dressing on the side.
Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator for up to one day. It won't be quite the same as fresh, but it holds up far better than most salads.
