Bag of kale. What to do?!

Sautee it in a little olive oil with some garlic and chopped mushrooms until it wilts down. Top a whole wheat pizza crust (easy to find at the grocery store) with goat cheese, pile the kale mix on top of the goat cheese (get the kind that is easy to spread with a butter knife) and bake for 25 minutes at 425. I usually do this with spinach, but I suspect it would be equally awesome with kale. YUM!0

Kale, pizza and goat cheese sounds like a winning recipe to me! Thanks for the suggestion.0

Kale chips!

I also sneak it into salads. When it blends in with lettuce, tomatos, cucumbers, etc the taste is a little more tolerable than eating it on its own.0 -

I made a great chorizo and butter bean recipe for tea last night, with kale. The recipe is on my food diary blog - ameliasfooddiary.wordpress.com

Kale pairs well with eggs, so add them to a scramble or quiche.0

Sorry, brassicas give me terrible stomach pains. The only cabbage recipe I can eat is a Hungarian one involving loads of pasta and butter:noway:0 -
Chop it up and add it to soups. There is also a "Green Soup" recipe out there that people love...
Sautee it with garlic and crushed red pepper... Add to whole wheat pasta and sprinkle with parmesan.

P.S. The goat cheese pizza idea sounds awesome!0 -
I also love kale chips. I also wilt some and add it to red quinoa cooked in chicken stock with a few pine nuts thrown in.0

Great suggestions! Cannot wait to try some, or if not all of them. As an almost life long vegetarian I have neglected to put kale into my diet until now. I regret that, but now I have so many yummy things to try!0

Kale chips! Spread single layer on a baking sheet, spray lightly with cooking spray, sprinkle with salt, and bake on low until crispy. Great to snack on.0

Kale is a strong sometimes bitter tasting vegetable.
Growing up I loved Kale cooked with potatoes and then mashed. Cut up the Kale in strips and cook with potatoes, and when soft
mash, add some milk, salt and pepper and then the best part is to fry some bacon and add the bits for a little meat. I subtract the
fat with the bacon since on my diet, but if you'r not looking to cut calories or want to calculate it in, the fat with bacon bits makes it
amazing. Anyway, that is an awesome meal and since dieting I've begun making KALE CHIPS, THEY ARE AWESOME!!0 -
Kale chips. Actually Yummy!0

There is a FANTASTIC recipe that I've used in the past (and I'd have to look for it if anyone is interested) for Turkey and Kale stuffed Acorn Squash. It has Fennel seeds that make the ground turkey taste like sausage.

I also use it in egg white Fritattas if I want a change from spinach.
1 1/2 cups egg whites
1 cup FF shredded Mozarella cheese (3/4 cup mixed with everything else, and 1/4 on top)
1 large Roma Tomato
1 1/2 cups frozen Kale
1 tsp black pepper
1 sauted onion
Mix everything together put 1/4 cup of shredded cheese on top, and pop it in the over (I can't remember if it's 350 or 400 degrees) for 30 minutes (or until set).0 -
Sausage, White Bean, and Kale Soup
The recipe calls for escarole, but my grocery store doesn't have that so I substitute kale. It is me and my husband's favorite soup!

Kale has the most nutrition per calorie of any green out there. Great choice!

I never thought of that. It sounds good. I always add it to my homemade soups. Yum!0 -
My household loves it raw! Fresh kale is so sweet-tasting this time of year, especially the purple kind. I use it raw for sandwiches, salads, and add into soups or saute lightly for a side dish.0

I have yet to try it but MIL told me she chops it up & adds to her omelets : )0

Whichever recipe you decide on, I recommend removing the thick stems. I like kale so much more since I started doing that.0

I often use kale in place of any recipe that has spinach! Soups/stews, sautes, smoothies, lasagna!

Cheesy vegan kale chips. I swear I like them like I like bacon.
