I think not. Kale is a cole crop. I sub it for collards.
Works well in any dish that calls for cabbage as
an ingredient. FE: Gyuvec is often made with
cabbage, but you cacn sub kale, collards, brocolli,
cauliflower or kohlrabi with no worries. OF course,
if she can't get beet tops, all bets are off....
