Home grown Kale, roasted!


At the top is the roasted kale. At the bottom is the prepared, raw kale.

It was 23 degrees in Goodyear, AZ at 8:30 am today. Last night, before I covered everything I could with blankets and sheets to keep my garden from freezing, I harvested a lot of Kale. A lot! I had both curly kale and lacinato kale. I picked a few pounds of it of it. It filled my kitchen sink, which is a custom large and deep sink. This morning, I cleaned it really well, cut it into manageable pieces, tossed it with olive oil and salt, and roasted it. Just imagine a potato chip...only better!
