Kale Caesar Salad with Cannellini Beans and Parmesan Crisps

This salad is inspired by a classic Caesar salad with chicken, and is instead made with kale and sautéed beans. The parmesan cheese crisps give the salad a satisfying crunch that takes the place of croutons in the traditional salad. For more details on making the Caesar salad dressing, visit the complete recipe here.
