glass filled with water. Cover the kale and glass with a plastic bag.

Nutrition

Recipies

Kale Chips: Remove kale from tough center stalks. Tear into pieces as large a playing card. Place on a cookie sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Alternately, place pieces in a large bowl, add olive oil and mix by hand to coat. Spread kale out on cookie sheet into single layer. Sprinkle generously with coarse salt and bake at 350 for 7-10 minutes and no longer. Remove and enjoy as soon as they’re cool enough to handle…delish!
