It is green.
People waste it far to often as just garnish.
It is a really strong plant that does not mess around.
KALE
Kale is sort of the "it" vegetable right now. People are always talking about juicing it or just eating it raw. There are always lovely kale salad recipes online. It is SUPER healthy. Plus, my farmers market always has the best varieties of organic kale for super cheap!
When I visited Mecca a few months ago I had a kale and avocado salad that was to die for.
Kale is also very common in Portuguese cooking. Since I was born in a Portuguese community with a Portuguese grandfather, one would think I had tons of kale growing up. Wrong.
I feel like I have rediscovered a vegetable. Don't you love that? My new favorite way of eating kale is about as simple as it comes. Ready for it?
My insanely simple kale recipe, after the jump.
