OK, so I have to admit it: Up until a couple of years ago, I had never even heard of kale. When I did finally try it, though, I fell head over heels in ♥!
So, what is kale exactly? It’s a tasty leafy green vegetable loaded with vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium, fiber, iron, and calcium! Basically, it’s a nutrient-packed powerhouse!
This “super food” is also super-versatile in the kitchen—it can be used in tons of recipes, like smoothies, juices, salads, stir-fries, and soups.
Want to know my fave ways to eat kale? I’m a big fan of cutting it into small pieces and using it in salads instead of lettuce. I also ♥ adding it to veggie soup and tofu scramble. YUM!
So, what are you waiting for?! Grab some kale from the grocery store and get cooking! 
Let us know your fave kale recipe in the comments section below.

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

^.^ I like this idea of introducing vegetables and such on peta2. It’s a good educational blog for those that are just begining vegetarianism/vegan.
and just those that don’t know.
