Spinach and Kale Salad With Chicken image

The fruit and goat cheese add lots of great flavor. Can add some red onion for more kick. My wife and I love it! A tasty and guiltless dinner item.

1 lemon, juice of
2 cups strawberries, sliced

I'm not usually a fan of kale, but this salad changed my mind. The dressing was so flavorful that it masked the bitterness of the kale. I'll definitely be making this again!
