Salad: Get your Super Power

I find that some food gives me a lot of energy right after eating it and other drain anything that is left. This salad is one of the dishes that brings me to life, that is why it's perfect for lunch!
I composed it from a number of super foods for maximum nutrition.

Ingredients:
2c of young cabbage
2 kale leaves, stems removed 
1 large Apple (I like Granny Smith)
1 large carrot
2-3 tbsp dried cranberries
6 tbsp sunflower seeds
6 tbsp pumpkin seeds

Dressing:
4 tbsp olive oil
Juice from half lemon (about 3-4 tbsp)
Juice from 2 inch grated ginger (about 1-2 tbsp)
2 tbsp poppy seeds
Salt and pepper

1. Grate cabbage like you would for coleslaw.
2. Chop kale into small thin strips.
3. Grate Apple and carrot ( large eye grater).
4. Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
5. Mix the dressing and pour into the salad. Mix everything well.
6. Enjoy!

The salad is best served the same day, but can stay in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.
