They are fine and they look fantastic. Kale and romaine lettuce salad is something which I have loved my entire life.
Kale and romaine make an ideal combination of greens, but all romaine or all kale is fine: just stay away from tender, wilting leaves like mesclun and Bibb lettuce. Add the romaine and kale to a salad bowl, then top with the prepared dressing. With clean hands, massage the salad until the kale leaves have softened slightly and the dressing evenly coats the leaves. Your hands will get messy, so this optional.

Steps to make Kale and romaine lettuce salad:

- Cut up the romaine lettuce and add to the bowl with the kale, mix together, I use my hands. Be sure to wash your hands, before you start preparing this.
- Cut up Roma tomatoes, I cut mine in fours down the middle, hold the pieces together, and flip them on their side, and then cut them into pieces, as shown in the picture. Toss them in the salad bowl after your done.
- Cut both ends off the onion. And peel off first layer.
- Dice the onion up (I included a picture of an easy way to dice up onions) and break up the pieces, so they aren't sticking together! (I did not include that picture.)
- Toss the onions in the salad bowl and mix the onions and Roma tomatoes, into the kale and romaine lettuce.

Don't worry romaine fans, this new mix will still include romaine, but it will. Also called Boston or bibb lettuce, butter lettuce is the most nutritious of the lettuces on this list. The leaves are higher in folate, iron, and potassium than iceberg or leaf lettuces.
