Hopefully you’re convinced by now, eat your kale! Here’s a delicious way to do so…
Clean a head of kale. Remove large stems. Put in large bowl. Squeeze lemon juice of one lemon over salad. Add S&P, massage kale. Yes, massage kale. It will make leaves tender and make kale taste less bitter… so get your hands dirty. Then add one diced avocado and lightly massage again. Add one chopped red bell pepper and a handful of almond slivers. This salad is so good and so good for you… so go get your greens on!
I love roasted kale. Put the oven on 425, coat the kale lightly in olive oil and salt and pepper. Spread it out on a cookie sheet, roast for 4-5 minutes on each side. Better than potato chips!!
That sounds awesome. I see a new post in our future:)
Thanks for the suggestion!
Kale salads are the best, especially when they involve avocado. Just gotta have that creamy richness to contrast those bitter greens. I’m craving one right now just looking at that photo!
Right on, thank you!
