I wasn’t always a fan of kale. For a long time, it was too harsh for me to eat as the lettuce for my salads. I didn’t like it braised like collard or mustard greens. I used it to blend into smoothies, but nothing else was working for me. Meanwhile the world around me was going all the way up for kale. I didn’t understand, but I wanted to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, I’ve come to appreciate the fiber that kale provides if nothing else. But seriously, it’s become a staple green around here. I can’t believe the transformation sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recipe was one of the first breakthroughs that I had with kale, so I want to share it just in case there’s anyone else still going through it with this particular vegetable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It utilizes my orange and honey soy glaze<\/a>, which is a favorite on pretty much everything at this point. And the cooking method leaves the kale with a little bit of crunch so it’s not just a soggy mess of greens on your plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why kale?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Second. It’s super versatile and pairs well with pretty much every protein I can think of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Number three. Kale is a major superfood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
