One of my broader goals in life is to try new foods or that I haven’t eaten in a long time. **Not only to retry them, but also to cook them in a healthy fashion** Tonight was kale. I don’t know why or how I had never tried kale. I didn’t even know it was a type of cabbage, I thought is was some weird seaweed. It was wonderful. I flash cooked it with salt, olive oil, garlic and topped with a bit of parmesan cheese and pine nuts. I definitely avoided significant wilting. I hate mushy squishy vegetables. Maybe that’s why I didn’t try them -I have a bad remembrance of mushy spinach (gross). The sweet potatoes are amazing. I didn’t put the coconut or macadamia nuts on top but they are great without. I got these recipes (and the pictures) from my favorite healthy food blog. It is honestly one of the best meals I have ever had. Even Andy liked the kale. I made it with some roasted chicken -delish. That was the best part of my day. Super interesting, huh?!
Pray for me tonight. I don’t want to go to sleep for fear of stalker addy.
