Massaged Kale Salad
Massaged Kale Salad

Even kale needs some love. Massaging an acid-based dressing into the fibrous green leaves tenderizes them, making the healthy vegetable more palatable in its raw form. Submitted by: CHEF_MEG

Chickpea, Kale & Butternut Squash Curry Soup

This is an easy and delicious one pot meal. The number of servings seems rather weird, but that is how many 2 cup servings we got. I see that the sodium value is pretty high. There is no way to note it when entering nutrition information, but you rinse the chickpeas which lowers the sodium considerably. Of course you can also reduce the amount of salt you add to lower it even further! If you have left over butternut squash that is already cooked it cuts down the recipe time to less than 30 minutes, just skip the first step and proceed with recipe. Enjoy!Submitted by: LILYGIRL83

Baked Tofu Kale Loaf (vegan)

This is a modified version of a recipe in my favorite vegan cookbook (La Dolce Vegan!) I'm not a big fan of the taste of kale by itself, but since it is so nutritious I did some experimenting, and found that it is delicious when minced in a tofu loaf =)

My friend Kate's simple, delicious recipe.

Carol's Kale Colcannon (Irish Mashed Potatoes)
Carol's Kale Colcannon (Irish Mashed Potatoes)

I serve kale colcannon as an accompaniment to crockpot corned beef & cabbage on Saint Patrick's Day, as my crockpot never is big enough to hold potatoes too. I was surprised to find no SPRecipe for Kale Colcannon. Usually made with cabbage not kale (except on Halloween), colcannon is healthier if you make it with kale, as kale scores as the #1 most nutritious veggie on the Andi scale. This is my tweaked recipe from Mark Boyer's County Mayo Colcannon recipe in Allrecipes. Submitted by: CAROLFAITHWALKR
