Just a super quick post because I miss ya.
And ‘cause I threw this together for a pot luck at work and I got lots of requests for the recipe.
And ‘cause I’m proud of myself for throwing together a season appropriate recipe that people actually liked that had kale.
I don’t think everyone knew it was kale though. Someone called it kelp.
He said; “Like from Sponge Bob.” “I didn’t think I would like it since I usually eat iceberg lettuce but it was really good.”
I said; “Ha! You just ate KALE.”
And please don’t hate me but I didn’t do the nutrition info on this one. If I get a spare minute I will go back and do it and update the recipe.
XOXO
