    You don't like kale??!! Well, I need you to try this recipe.
    1) Tear up the kale into 2-3" pieces
    2) Drizzle with olive oil, a tiny pit of lemon juice
    3) Put in 350 degree oven for 12-20 minutes
    4) Sprinkle salt on the crunchy little delights
    5) Eat! It's like eating healthy potato chips.

    (Make sure you use more kale than you think you need, because it shrinks quite a bit)

    That was fun - I haven't blogged in ages but this inspired me to do so. =) I totally hear you on the kale thing. EW! Though I've heard kale chips are delish I just can't imagine it...
    And the movie is Napoleon Dynamite. =D

    Hi Jen :-)

    The only way I like Kale, is to use it to garnish trays of food with ;-)
