What to do with it? Angela bought it for smoothies but does not like it.

I made kale chips once. Although she and husband gobbled them up as fast as
I could make them, when I made more, they wouldn't eat them.

I know there is a bean and kale soup but this isn't soup weather.

I probably won't eat the stuff.

We mixed a little in tonight to husband's green salad. But what else can I
do with it? We have a ton and it is already cut up. Can it be cooked with
bacon or something.

How do you do it? Boil? Fry? I don't normally cook greens. The only ones
I have done are Swiss Chard and just a small amount in a hamgurger gravy.

I've googled it for you. Here's a good basic one:

I would like that too. I especially like that kale is a good source of
calcium. Going to make it!

Do you like creamed spinach? How about creamed kale, it's quite nice.
Bacon also goes nicely with kale.

That would have to be my very least favorite use for kale, or any

And I think it will work well with what I was planning to make which is
scalloped potatoes with ham. Was going to do a stiry fry veg but this will
work better. And I don't have to buy anything because I have it all!

No. I don't like creamed anything. Or cooked spinach for that matter unless
it's in something. I can tolerate a little in a soup or mixed into
something cooked. Which is why *I* don't intend to eat the kale. If it
were not so hot, I would make soup. Actually today would have been a
perfect soup day. It only reached 69 degrees which seemed cold after the
warm weather we've been having. I shouldn't complain too much. It really
hasn't been hot. Just a tad warmer than I like it and very dry. I no
longer have grass. Now there is just some dry straw looking stuff.

I don't care for that stuff either. My husband might like stuffed cabbage
although he never asked me to make it. I don't think it is commonly made
here but it is in PA where he is from. I was served it many times there. I
didn't mind the inside part but the cabbage and the odor it gives off was
not pleasant.

By this time everyone who is remotely interested has given kale chips
a try and formed an opinion (I love them) and you probably know all
about the various salads made with kale. Type "kale recipe" into any
search engine you're comfortable using and you'll get a boatload. I
never know what you're going to shoot down, but here are a some ideas
to look at. Vary them to suit yourself, if you're interested in
anything

I did say that I made the kale chips already. And I already got the bacon
recipe that I'll use, but thanks. Now I have to get Angela to stop eating
it so I have enough to make the recipe. Even though she said that she
didn't like it, she is still eating it! She is now adding sunseed butter to
her smoothies and apparently that makes it all better.

I LOVE kale and grow it in the garden (cavolo de nero) and this year
a purple-red one whose name I forget). We like it with bacon or baked
ham, and mashed potatoes. (and added to minestrone soup a couple of
minutes before you serve it).

I would never buy it ready cut up; you lose the vitamins and toughen
it.
Immediately before cooking, rinse the leaves under a tap and slice
them very finely. Then either steam them , or put them in a pan with a
bare spoon of water and toss them about on the heat till done. They
cook nquickly and should still be bright green and not floppy. Toss the
hot kale with some butter and black pepper.

If there's any left over, cooked kale makes good bubble and squeak,
served with fried eggs.

Verzini*, or Involtini di Verza (kale rolls): boil the kale leaves to make
them flaxible and lay them over a towel to dry up a bit. Make you favorite
meatball / meatloaf recipe, make it into balls and put each of them over a
kale leaf, wrap it up with the leaf, wrap with a second leaf if you want
them more kale-ish. Put some garlic, oil and tomato in a pan and make a
quick tomato sauce then add the verzini to it, add some water (less than
1/2") and cover. Turn them halfway through, keep the water level under
control, it shouldn't reduce too much so add some water when needed, at the
end uncover and let the excess water evaporate.
http://www.greenme.it/images/stories...tini_verza.jpg
Disclaimer: verzini is a word with many significations, here in my area it's
the name of these kale-wrapped meatballs, in Milan it's the name of sauseges
specifically made for cassoeula, a rich pork soup, probably has other
significations elsewhere.

I only bought it cut up because Angela prefers stuff that way. I did see
the regular stuff but didn't even offer it to her as an option.

Kale is one of my favourite things, especially the cavolo nero
variety.

Julie Bove wrote:
> What to do with it? Angela bought it for smoothies but does not like it.


If it's fresh, it makes a pretty good salad. I mix it about 50% with
chopped Iceberg lettuce to tone it own a little. (I do the same thing
with raw chopped broccoli)

If it's frozen kale, just leave it in the freezer for a couple of months
until it is soup weather :-)

Lots of people like kale, I even eat it raw off the plant sometimes.

I tried it for smoothies, too, but it is way too strong for the fruit to
smooth out the flavor. Spinach is good though. My SiL is getting her 2
year old granddaughter used to making smoothies with green veggies and I
think it's great. She'll be 3 in December and she's already decided it
isn't breakfast without a smoothie. She helps make them too.

Good gawd, that's an awful lot to take in in one sitting!

You made me look up bubble and squeak. lol

Anything with mashed potatoes is a winner with me. I might try it with
cabbage. I have a half a head left after making a delicious coleslaw.

Kale is a big favorite of raw vegans. They use it for chips and wraps and
tacos.

I made a lot of smoothies when Angela was young but I didn't know to put the
veggies in there then. I used Emeril Lagasse's method. Frozen berries,
banana, yogurt, honey and a little milk to thin if needed. Then one day
both she and my husband got burned out on them and they never had them again
until we moved here and all the kids at the dance studio were drinking Jamba
Juice. We bought a few of those but they're kind of expensive and IMO not
all that healthy.

Oh, my MIL put cabbage in mashed potatoes once. I didn't mind it but would
have preferred it not to be in there. FIL had a fit. Told her it was a
perfectly good way to ruin mashed potatoes. Unfortunately, he had a huge
garden and she was constantly trying to use things up before they went bad.

Tonight we're having lamb rissoles and gravy, mashed potato, peas and
onions. I always make more mashed potato than needed for dinner for
bubble and squeak the next morning

That is one of my favourite comfort meals in winter, except I do beef
rissoles. I like my gravy salty and spooned over the mash as well as
the rissoles. I usually grind my own meat for them because, around
here, it is hard to get beef mince with the right fat content.
Everyone wants extra lean which just doesn't cut it for rissoles.

Just clarifying... rissoles are equal to our meatballs, but they are
flattened into patties? Love bubble & squeak and used to make it
quite a bit because it was my DD's favorite dish - but it was always
dinner.

Rissole http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rissole
Meatball http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meatball
Kofta http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kofta

Wikipedia says a rissole is "a small croquette, enclosed in pastry or
rolled in breadcrumbs, usually baked or deep fried". That's not been
my experience however.
