   Drizzle the salad dressing and toss to evenly coat. Add the crumbled goat cheese if desired. Serve immediately, or place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. The salad can be made 2-3 hours in advance. The kale softens and wilts as it marinates and the flavors blend making the salad even more delicious!
