Garlicky Kale Salad

I posted this in the lounge and people really seem to like it. I love this salad and have been making it several times per week. It's a clone recipe that I found on the Internet. The person put it together based on the ingredients of the HSH Garlicky Kale Salad found at Whole Foods. I buy the Whole Foods version whenever I go there.

*
1/2 bunch raw kale, washed, de-stemmed and dried
* 1 T tahini
* 1 T apple cider vinegar (or water)
* 1 T lemon juice
* 1 T Bragg's liquid aminos (tamari or soy sauce would work too)
* 2 T nutritional yeast
* 1 tsp. minced garlic (1 - 2 cloves of garlic)
* sesame seeds, to taste as garish (optional)
1.
Break or cut kale into bite size pieces and place in a large bowl.
2. Puree all ingredients except kale and sesame seeds in a blender or food processor to blend the dressing.
3. Pour dressing over kale and massage into the kale with your hands until all pieces of kale are coated.
4. Let the salad sit in the fridge for an hour or so to marinate. You can skip this step if you need to eat right away, but allowing some time to marinate will wilt the kale a bit and make it a little more palatable - particularly for those who are skeptical of eating raw kale.
5. Sprinkle on some sesame seeds before serving if so desired.
