| Kale Eggplant Stew |
Memorial Day and the beginning of summer are here. Now you did so well slimming down for bathing suit time remember to balance eating burgers and potato salad with some lighter healthier food like kale or spinach which are both still in season. I found some Lacinato Kale for this dish... wonderful, if you see it pick it up. It's a lighter more tender kale... closer to spinach, very flavorful.
I will be quiet busy this weekend with picnics and a parade so please enjoy the party and get involved with this giveaway.
