To those cooking your kale.. use a healthy oil like virgin olive oil
But it should be noted that cooking any vegetable begins destroying the vital phytonutrients that make kale a superfood.
Juicing? Sure.. but smoothies are better.
1-2 oz of natural juice concetrate
1 cup of pineapple
4 large strawberries
6 oz of almond or coconut milk
2-3 cups of ice
makes two servings
puree the juice concentrate and kale
then add the fruit of your choice, nut milks and ice... blend... enjoy!
Here isn a recent article on kale... Drew Ramsey, M.D.: This Is Your Brain on Kale
In the nutition newsletter I get it states cooked kale is healthier than raw which is typically contradictory to most others. That's what got me to thinking when I steamed some for 20 minutes instead of three.
