To make the dressing, whisk the vinegar, mustard, honey and oil together in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
To make the salad, remove the kale leaves from the stems and discard the stems. Slice the leaves thinly (you should have about 5 cups). Place the kale in a salad bowl and add the dressing. Massage the dressing into the kale, coating all of the leaves well. This will help the kale absorb the dressing and also help tenderize the leaves. Add the apple, dried cranberries, sunflower seeds, and almonds and toss to combine. Sprinkle the cheese on top and serve.
