Drain sauerkraut and and squeeze out excess water by hand. Thinly slice/julienne carrots, bell peppers and onion. Chop or tear kale into bite size pieces. Sprinkle with approximately one half tablespoon olive oil and salt, then massage kale to soften. Mix all salad ingredients (except almond slivers and chia seeds) in large bowl. Mix together dressing ingredients and mix into salad. Use only what is needed for taste. Lastly mix in almond slivers and chia seeds. This salad is a great left-over and stays fresh for 3 to 4 days.
