Raw kale is a tougher green that does well raw when tenderized first. Shred the kale pretty thin into a bowl. Pour oil, salt and lemon juice on the kale and then gently mash the juices into the leaves until the kale is tender (about 50 strokes). Add the fresh garlic, parsley, fruit and nuts to the top and toss. Set out on the counter covered for a 1/2 hour before serving so kale accepts the flavors.
