A New Staple

Kale has become a new staple in my house. As of a week or two ago, I can't say I'd ever even had it (I may have and not realized it), but I had certainly never cooked with it. Now, however, I buy the giant bags of the stuff pre-washed and cut for less than $2 and use it for EVERYTHING! I now know what all the fuss is about. I just stopped home for lunch before I head out to a meeting for work and put some kale on a large plate, sliced up my leftover steak from dinner Saturday night and topped the kale, along with the leftover potatoes and veggie side (I kept everything cold), drizzled a little Ranch dressing on top and had a really lovely meal. Now with a clementine and piece of 72% dark chocolate for dessert, I am a happy woman and geared up for the rest of my long afternoon of work!
