I love salads but even I as a nutritionist prefer a salad that comes with garlicky croutons! ??

This kale panzanella salad meets both the tasty and healthy brief! It is also very simple to make as the oven will do most of the cooking for you! (Which is kind of my favourite way to cook as it gives me more time to prepare other part of the meals, set the table or just scroll Instagram haha)
