I cut it into pieces about 3 inches long, toss it with olive oil, spread on a cookie sheet, salt, and bake at 325 for about 20 minutes to make kale chips. This is my family's favorite way to eat it.

Karen, this was great info as I never knew this about kale. My mom also has eye problems so am passing all this on to her.

Recipezaar.com has some great recipes - you can type kale in and do an ingredient search. I use that website all the time... one of my favorite things to do with kale is to make a knock-off Olive Garden Zuppa Tuscana soup!!

Here's a link to some Kale bread that I made a couple weeks ago. It's amazingly yummy with some fresh butter spread on it!

I would use it as any other green, I also got a recipe for kale ravioli off Christina Cooks. It's a PBS show, I believe her website is Christinacooks.com.

Forgot a couple, kale pesto and take sliced kale and marinate with olive oil and a pinch of salt. Let that sit a few hours and it takes on a cooked texture but it still has all the goodness of raw. then put anywhere, sandwiches, salad, etc

I love kale so the question is what not to do with kale. My favorite ways are, sauteed with olive oil, garlic, squeeze of lemon and sometimes dried figs. I coat kale with a dressing or sauce and dehydrate it to make kale chips. Torn up in salads is great. In soups, stews. Or get a big leaf and wrap you favorite sandwich filling and eat like a wrap. Put some in a smoothy. Use as a filling in phylo dough like spanakopita. I toss some in with pasta. I am hungry now so I have to go eat some kale. Enjoy
