What tha Kale?

The other day I cooked kale for the first time and both Bucky and I loved it!
Here is a tasty recipe that I think is a great way to introduce yourself to kale and all of its healthy benefits!

According to http://www.whfoods.com/ kale can benefit your health in these ways:

*Organosulfur Phytonutrients that Help Prevent Cancer
*Kale Protective against Ovarian Cancer
*Optimize Your Cells' Detoxification / Cleansing Ability
*Carotenoids that Lower Cataract Risk
*Kale Gets an A+ for its Pro-vitamin A
*Promotes Lung Health
*A Healthy Dose of Vitamin C for Antioxidant Protection and Immune Support
*Protection against Rheumatoid Arthritis
*A Very Good Source of Fiber
*Calcium-For A Lot Less Calories and Minus the Fat in Cow's Milk

Sautéed Kale
* 1 bundle of kale - washed and chopped coarsely
* 1 small onion chopped
* 1-2 cloves of garlic minced
* Pam olive oil spray
* Salt & pepper to taste
* Red pepper flakes (optional)

Spray a medium to large sauté pan (that has a lid) with Pam cooking spray and let it warm over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, red pepper flakes & pepper and sauté until onions are translucent. Add as much kale that will fit into the pan (the kale will reduce quite a bit) and sprinkle salt to taste then cover. Sauté for 15-20 minutes until kale is soft. Then enjoy!

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we did. I would love to hear your feedback on whether you liked it or not.

Happy Fitness!
