Introduction
For this recipe, I decided to forgo all that and use tender baby kale instead. It has a milder flavor than mature kale, similar to arugula, yet its leaves are still peppery and sturdy enough to stand up to bolder flavors. It comes pre-washed and ready to serve, so it will save you time and effort in the end. For this recipe, I decided to forgo all that and use tender baby kale instead.
