Sautéed Kale
Went for a second run this week with this sautéed kale. To be honest I didn't really like it. The flavor was great, but the texture of the kale... I wasn't a big fan of. I've only had kale once before at The Green Cafe, but it was much softer and easier to chew. I do, however, think it turned out how it was supposed to, and my roommate gladly ate it for me. He enjoyed it and said that kale definitely has an acquired taste. Here is the recipe nonetheless!

I love kale. Oh so good for you too! Try steaming it next time and it will be much softer. Also, you should try making kale chips-you won't be sorry!
