Just mixed up a couple of sample seed packs by accident. Now what? Can't say as I've ever eaten it.

roast it or eat it in salads

I don't like kale from the grocery store, but when I grow it at home it is good. I mainly eat iin salads.

Kale Caesar salad

Massage your kale if you are going to eat it in salads, like in EVOO or something

I just want to eat it. Does kale need to be in the mood?

---

maybe it'll taste better?

i don't love kale, but i make a lemon/kale goat cheese pasta that is pretty solid.

There's a purple Kale variety too that tastes great

November All the way to April is great for growing all types of greens like lettuce , kale,chard, mustard greens, spinach

I've had mixed success with under ground veggies such as radish, beets and carrots I'll try to download some pics from the garden

you can also freeze it

I have a recipe for a kale Caesar salad that I freeze the kale then chop it. It quickly thaws and has the same effect as massaging

I usually grill some a HEB chicken fajita thigh package and eat fresh garden salads about 3-4 x a week

I laughed at this, but Lord have mercy does it make a difference! Fried up a little bacon and some onions, set aside, heated the skillet a little more and added the "massaged" kale, followed by the bacon/onions.



Added a splash of white wine, took it a hair long, and it was not picture worthy, but tasted great.

Chop it small enough to be eaten with a soup spoon. Add a meat of choice (shrimp, diced chicken, peanuts, can of tuna...). Sesame oil, soy sauce, black pepper, and sesame/ginger dressing, all to taste. Add whatever else you want.

Lettuce in all forms is a waste of everything compared to the nutrition in kale. I don't eat lettuce any more - only kale, spinach, chard, arugula...

You can make chips with it.

Try it with the grandkids.


You can blanch it and use it like cabbage leaves for a cabbage/kale roll

Your cable guys really took some liberties with the co-ax.

The key to kale, and this is important: cut it very low to get as much as possible. Then throw it in the trash. Because it's terrible.

Sounds like you've not had good kale dishes

I kid a little bit. I'm not picky so I'll eat it. Just wouldn't choose kale over spinach, mustard greens, collard greens...

Just saw a commercial where a guy is in danger of another heart attack.

He asks why?
He exercises.
He takes his medicine.

AND HE EATS KALE!

Stop making fun of kale. It is tasty when prepared correctly

Kale chips. They're surprisingly addictive. https://altonbrown.com/recipes/baked-greens-chips/

These hold up to dipping at all, or are they too delicate?

I typically substitute andouille for the choirico.

Find the copycat Olive Garden soup zuppa toscana recipe. Kale is an ingredient and that soup is fantastic imo.

i usually dont put potatoes in the soup and add a **** ton of kale to make it lower carb.
