It has more vitamin C than an orange and more than 600 percent of your vitamin K need per serving. One tiny cup has almost three times as much calcium as a school lunch milk carton. No wonder some nutrition experts consider kale a goddess—especially psychiatrist/farmer Drew Ramsey, MD and chef/recipe developer Jennifer Iserloh, authors of the new cookbook Fifty Shades of Kale, who proclaim kale as attractive as she is nutritious. After all, “nothing is sexier than a sharp, happy mind atop a lean, healthy body,” they write. “Few foods are able to deliver this promise like kale.”
The vegetable, they continue, “possesses a veritable medicine chest of healthy molecules known as phytonutrients.” Kale’s sulforaphane may protect against diseases like diabetes and cancer. Her flavonoids may boost your heart and immune system.
Think kale is just for salads or a simple side dish with dinner? Not so. Ramsey and Iserloh have found unbelievably tasty, fun ways to cook with kale—from Blood Marys to chocolate chip cookies to risotto. Here are a few of their kale recipes we can’t wait to try.
