Hello readers! Here is a great way to use the powerhouse superfood kale in a new and exciting way! I found this recipe recently in an article from Mind-Body Green and I had to try it! Its yummy, easy to prepare and nutritious - my three favourite things when it comes to food!
Here it is:
Ingredients
- ¼- ½ cup chopped walnuts
- 1 ½ -2 teaspoons salt (I prefer sea salt)
- ½ pound kale, stems removed, coarsely chopped (approx 1 medium bunch)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ cup EV olive oil
- ½ tsp old bay seasoning
- ½ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- Ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Toast chopped walnuts by placing on a baking sheet and toast at 325 degrees. Keep an eye on nuts – they burn quickly and will get bitter!
- Bring about two quarts of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of the salt, then add kale. Cook, uncovered, until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from pot and drain.
- In a blender or food processor, add garlic, walnuts and drained kale and whiz until well combined. Pour in oil in a steady stream, and pulse until combined. Add ½ teaspoon salt and Old Bay Seasoning, pulse, then taste. Add remaining ½ teaspoon of salt if necessary.
- Spoon pesto into a bowl and stir in cheese and pepper.
For ½ pound pasta, use 2-3 tablespoons pesto. Keeps really well in an airtight container in the refrigerator, for up to a week.
Makes about one cup.
Voila! Easy and delicious! Try it and enjoy the benefits of kale!
Yours in health,

So everyone out there should try out the clothing items of the hundreds, as I am sure they will not be disappointed. Are you sure that this is the right course of action. I was snobby with my 'craft,' and I carried my SLR with me everywhere.
