Kale Soup



The first thing I am reminded of when I look at Kale is fractals. Kale are beautiful ornamental plants. To know more about fractals here is a link to an excellent article - Fractal Food
In the supermarket I have often been bowled over by their beauty but never had the courage to actually buy them. Until one day when a friend of mine thrusted me with a big bunch of organic kale produce from a nearby farm. I ran out of spinach (a staple at my home) and started using kale in every dish in lieu of spinach. One could not tell a difference. My daughter who is more judgemental about my cooking actually ate this soup without any reservations.

I would highly recommend this nutritious Kale soup. Its loaded with vitamins, anti-oxidants. Go get your bunch today and enjoy their goodness.
