My husband and I just signed up for a farm share. We absolutely love coming home with bags of fresh veggies every week, but we find ourselves stumped by one item: kale. So far we have added kale to soup, pasta, and a quiche, but we still have a fridge full of the stuff. Any fresh ideas?

Kale is one of those super foods -- chocked full of vitamins -- that's all the rage lately. That said, I have absolutely no idea how to prepare kale. I've always been a picky eater, and trying new things isn't my strong suit. I've been trying to convince myself for two years to try olives -- still haven't worked up the guts to do it.
However, Jen keeps her fridge stocked with the curly green leaf variety, so I asked her for some advice. Her top recipe? Kale salad, inspired by a salad she fell in love with at Rustik in Bloomingdale.
Kale Salad
- Kale, stems discarded
- Beets
- Celery
- Fresh dill
- Goat cheese
- Almonds
- Vinaigrette dressing
Toss the ingredients, and feel free to make substitutions or additions based on what you have in your fridge and pantry.
xo,
J
