10 Ways to Make Kale Delicious
Kale truly is a super food and thanks to a constant rise in popularity it is also seeing a decline in cost, so all the more reason to get more into your diet.
A single cup of raw kale (about 67 grams or 2.4 ounces) contains:
- Vitamin A: 206% of the RDA (from beta-carotene).
- Vitamin K: 684% of the RDA.
- Vitamin C: 134% of the RDA.
- Vitamin B6: 9% of the RDA.
- Manganese: 26% of the RDA.
- Calcium: 9% of the RDA.
- Copper: 10% of the RDA.
- Potassium: 9% of the RDA.
- Magnesium: 6% of the RDA.
- As well as 3% or more of the RDA for Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Iron and Phosphorus.
My number one tip for salads – massage your kale! Being such a robust leafy green it can be slightly bitter to taste and has tough stems, this golden rule is a must.
Kale is a fantastic food, a brilliant healer and so packed with alkaline nourishment you should be including it every day. In my guide to kale here I share six big benefits including it being anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant rich, fibre-rich, containing omega oils, alkaline and packed with blood-building chlorophyll.
I strongly recommend you get it every day.
