For the love of Kale!




My initial interest in the world of real food was sparked by a wonderful, leafy green cabbage, that when baked and sprinkled with sesame seeds, sea salt, and nutritional yeast, provides a healthy and delicious alternative to popcorn! Kale is high in beta carotene, Vitamin K, Vitamin C, iron, and sulforaphane; a potent chemical that has the ability to fight cancer!

Kale, along with beets, braising greens, Brussels sprouts, other cabbages, carrots, leeks, mache, parsnips, and pears are in season during the winter months, so stocking up on this miracle vegetable is a great way to support seasonal agriculture in the Pacific Northwest
