Cooking Tips

• To prepare kale, wash the leaves, cut away the center ribs, along the stems, roll each leaf into 1/4 inch strips.
• If you find kale too bitter, substitute it with the same amount of Swiss chard -sweeter flavor and softer texture. Prepare the chard the same way you would kale.s

Recipe type

Vegetables, kale, carrots.
