Ok, I’ve been hearing about kale forever.  How good it is for you, the new superfood, etc.  But truthfully I’m not a big “greens” fan.  I like spinach, cabbages and most leafy lettuces but that’s about  it.

But after reading about the health benefits of this odd looking leafy green I decided to give it a go.  I’ve experimented with it a few different ways.  The recipe below is my favorite!  Enjoy.

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees
• Put parchment paper on a baking sheet
• Rip kale into bite size pieces, wash and dry thoroughly
• Lay in single layer on parchment paper
• Drizzle olive oil or use a Misto sprayer to lightly coat the leaves, toss (go lightly on the oil, it will not be absorbed by the kale)
• Sprinkle with a bit of salt
• Bake for about 8 minutes

Some of the kale will be crisper while others not as much.  I just toss the kale in a bowl and eat plain, the olive oil and salt provide a lovely flavor combination.  A friend recommended a squeeze of lemon juice which also sounds delicious.

Give this superfood a try and let me know how you like it.

Now go run!

Keli 🙂
