What is kale?
Have you seen that dark, leafy green that usually pops up in healthier recipes? That, my friend, is kale! Kale is from the cabbage family, and it originates from the Northern Middle East.
Raw kale has a large amount of Vitamin K, and also has smaller amounts (but still significant) of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, folate and manganese. In addition to the vitamins, kale is also a good source of fiber and protein. Talk about a nutritious leafy green!
Kale is commonly used in salad recipes, but there are many other ways it can be prepared! You can saute it, steam it, and even bake it into tons of delicious recipes.
