Kale Toscano

In cooking Kale has a variety of uses due to it’s health benefits.

In the Netherlands a mix of curly kale and mashed potatoes, sometimes with fried bacon, and served with smoked sausage.  Kale is considered a Northern German staple and comfort food.

Often added into soups, stews, salads, pureed with tomatoes, in vegan broths and smoothies.

A personal favorite is to place on an oven tray, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkled with salt and black pepper, then to quickly bake in hot oven to make kale chips.
