I have been enjoying kale for about four years now. It seems that every food magazine and food show recently is using this nutrient rich green. Just this morning I saw in my new Bon Appetit Magazine a grilled kale and apricot salad that I must try. But, now here is another wonderful recipe from Gourmet Quick Kitchen for kale that I have enjoyed at least six times and I love it! It is so easy and with the super nutritious kale you can’t go wrong. I made this dish again last Friday night with kale that this young actress brought me from her parents’ garden. It was wonderful with spicy sausage topped with shaved Pecorino Romano. Oh my gosh! By the way check out Ashley in this movie that’s just been released on HBO. What could be better – pasta, kale, and a good movie?


Let me tell you about my relationship with Kale. It is non-existent. I have heard of it, but never have purchased any much less prepared it. So when these beautiful greens arrived in my CSA box I really was at a loss as to what to make with them. Searching the internet I came up with several good ideas. Here is one that I think is a winner. This vegetable can have somewhat of a bitter taste, but the balsamic vinegar and salt cuts the bitterness and it is just plain good.
