- Whisk olive oil, lime juice, jalapeno pepper, honey, cumin, coriander and sea salt together in a bowl until dressing is smooth.
- Place kale in a bowl and sprinkle sea salt over kale. Massage salt into the kale until leaves are darker in colour and fragrant. Drizzle enough dressing over kale to lightly coat. Gently fold in black beans, avocado and feta cheese.
- Place pecans into a pan and sprinkle sugar and 1/8 teaspoon salt over pecans; cook and stir over medium-low heat until fragrant and sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Cool pecans and chop.
- Distribute salad among serving bowls and top with toasted pecans and fresh coriander.
Note:
I like to add sugar and salt to the pecans while toasting, but you can toast them dry.
