Happy Monday evening everyone! Since I am feeling hyperactive I may be starting a few discussions here. Ha. This may seem like a silly question but have you ever eaten Kale? Its like a leafy green that is supposed to be good for you. Similar consistency as fresh spinach.
I had a couple bites this morning and made me a kale-spinach salad with tomatoes, onions, cheese. I am a nut about my salads lately so I apreciate the variety.
I dont know what I was expecting but kale tastes to me.....very earthy. Maybe similar to how I would imagine grass would taste. Ha ha!
Have you ever had this? Do you eat it in salads or have any special kale recipes?

Kale is a legit super food. You are doing yourself a favor eating it.

@maezee I usually add it to a salad. Other times I saute it with a little olive oil, onion, and garlic. You can also bake it and have kale chips.

@allen0187 that sounds great - baking them and making a healthy treat! I ate it with spinach and iceberg and veggies today and it was OK.

I didn't care for it. It is okay in a salad if you also add lettuce or spinach. It is less overpowering that way.
