Sautéed greens are so easy to pull together, and can be made 5 minutes before the rest of a meal. You can also make greens as a snack anytime you think your body need a good shot of tasty green goodness. Kermit would be proud. This is one of my favorite ways to get vitamins …
Avocado Kale Salad {lemon honey dressing}
Avocado and kale go great together. Avocado is a great source of healthy fat and kale is loaded with vitamins (A, B, C, and K) as well as a good dose of manganese, fiber, and protein. Kale is a bit tougher and more fibrous, as green leaves go, so using your hands to tear it …
Kale Caesar Salad
I reach for kale when I’m looking to infuse my body with nutrient-rich green food. Raw kale is kind of bitter, so the trick to getting rid of the bitterness is to massage the leaves with your fingers. First, I rip the leaves into small pieces and place them in a bowl as I go, …
Zucchini Pesto Noodles with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

I’m feeling very green this week. We actually have a bunch of Irish in us here. My husband has Irish, Scottish, and Welsh in his lineage, hence the blue eyes, red hair, and fair skin on one of my boys. The freckles are from me. So here’s to green food in celebration of all things …
Kale Pesto
I’ve been craving green food lately, which led me to grab a big bunch of green kale while shopping. I went searching food sites to see if there was something besides kale chips, which I’ve had and love, but I wanted something with a lot of green and nutrients. Kale is packed with vitamins and …
