Roll the leaves up like a huge sushi, cut in thin strips.


Fire up the stove with some oil or fake butter, garlic cut into cubes and onion cut into strips.

Add the kale and stir-fry, then serve with black beans and rice.


Add salt if desired while still on the heat.

I sautee kale (or chard or collards if there's no kale at the store) with garlic and onions, spice it up with some cumin and chili powder, add some kind of beans (usually black beans) and then serve it over rice. The leftovers just get all mixed together and make a yummy lunch, hot or cold.

I steam big dragon kale leaves and use them as wraps for whatever I have in the fridge (especially useful if I need to pack a lunch).

I find kale too chewy to eat in a salad, so I stick to spinach there.

Not a fan of sautee-ing because I'm superstitious, but you can heat up a bit of olive oil, then garlic and cayenne and ginger, then cubed tofu, then dump a bunch of kale on top. Reduce heat, cover and then cook until kale is bright green. That's a good one.

Preference is to cut up kale or collards or chard (or all combined) with stems at the bottom of the pot, put in half-inch water medium heat and load pot according to density (usually collard and kale stems chopped up, then chopped up leaves.... Like to add nice mushrooms (nice vice from I think it's mycopia.com in the US) and tofu and ginger and garlic and cayenne. Tamari usually isn't necessary unless you know you need to the salt. Tofu and/or legumes (white, azuki, lentils, black, red ... what ever) as preferred/needed.

[quote="vincentxanthony"]I'm partial to lightly oiled and sauteed kale with thinly sliced garlic, but I'm looking for more things to do with kale. Do you like chips, or make a salad?

[quote="lobsteriffic"]I make kale chips in the oven with nutritional yeast and garlic powder and a bit of salt.

I really like massaged kale salads. I mash up some avocado and then massage it into the kale leaves.

Mostly though I just sautee the kale with some garlic, like you already said.

It's so easy it's not even a recipe, honestly. Preheat oven to 375 (sometimes 380-400 works better), spread pieces of kale on a baking sheet. Bake for 7, stir, then bake for another 7-10. Voila! Then add salt, nutritional yeast, garlic powder...whatever you like.

I love plain kale chips, especially with the combination of salad.
