I buy a huge bunch, tear it up and cook it w/ some veg. broth in a pan w/ the lid on. Once it is soft, but still bright green, take it off the heat and let it cool. Put in freezer bag and freeze. Anytime you want some for a soup, you have it ready. It retains it's green color and tastes great. I keep a bag on hand for a fast meal of lentil, rice and kale w/ cumin. Quick and yummy!Kimhttp://survivingoshkosh.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-11757925382594269122011-10-21T12:06:08.803-04:002011-10-21T12:06:08.803-04:00Oh, that looks yummy (& a good way to get the ...Oh, that looks yummy (& a good way to get the good stuff from kale without it being quite so...kale-y...). I'll have to try it out! So far, I've only used kale in juice & smoothies (this past week, in fact, during my juice fast). I had a friend, however, who used to saute it with garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and various other veggies as a side dish.Kimhttp://the-whole-of-it.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-19957206560927034692011-10-17T22:29:09.208-04:002011-10-17T22:29:09.208-04:00You'll be making kale chips in no time. ;)You'll be making kale chips in no time. ;)Kaitlyn Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13019341278914981590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-55837378477970505822011-10-17T14:03:14.831-04:002011-10-17T14:03:14.831-04:00I'm drooling!

Cook your peeled potatoes (cut into pieces) together with the cale until the potatoes are soft. Drain and mash with some butter and milk. Season with salt, pepper and freshly grind nutmeg. Stir through some baked diced bacon and serve with gravy and "rookworst" (dutch smoked sausage) or another sausage ;-) Eet smakelijk!<br />Love AmelieAmeliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02835030273664772316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-29434044857235189682011-10-13T17:20:06.725-04:002011-10-13T17:20:06.725-04:00Looks like some yummy recipes linked up this week....Looks like some yummy recipes linked up this week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-28222409048465148832011-10-13T14:08:47.190-04:002011-10-13T14:08:47.190-04:00Looks yummy!

But I don't think I've ever had kale before and was clueless about making it, so I haven't had the courage to try it yet. But your meal looks delicious (I'm a vegetarian though, so I'll have to see if there are similar recipes.), it might actually inspire me to buy some Kale this weekend at the farmer's market!Mandi Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14641577291206420549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747990468719074509.post-47723621811999939562011-10-13T09:09:46.676-04:002011-10-13T09:09:46.676-04:00Grr!

One thing I've found I don't like all wheat in is french bread, and I use about 1/2 white wheat and 1/2 white bread flour (Gold Medal's Better For Bread), or whatever I put in :P This week I ran out of white wheat and made some blueberry muffins with regular white flour... they are so pale looking :P But really, you almost can't tell a difference when using the white wheat. Maybe if you did a side-by-side test, but with pancakes, waffles, muffins, cookies, we don't notice the wheat.Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171889409871334109noreply@blogger.com
