Massage the kale: Add kale to a large bowl. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and lemon juice. Massage for 2–3 minutes until leaves soften.
Add Power Green: Sprinkle 1 scoop of Power Green over massaged kale and toss gently to incorporate.
Assemble salad: Add roasted squash, apple slices, pomegranate seeds, and pumpkin seeds to kale mixture. Toss well.
Dress and serve: Drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Serve immediately or chill for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
