Kale is an amazing vegetable often called the "Queen of Greens". I happen to agree with that title and with several friends watching their diets, either for weight loss or for the betterment of their health, I wanted to share 2 simple ways to prepare and enjoy this flavorful and nutritious food to show them my support.

What you need:

· ¼ Cup of Olive Oil
· 2 Teaspoons of Salt
· 3 Cloves of Garlic, crushed
· ¼ cup of nutritional Yeast
· 1 Teaspoon of lemon juice of Apple Cider Vinegar
· Gloves (to massage the leaf pieces)
What do you do:
Place all ingredients in a blender (except the kale) and process until smooth then pour it over the kale. Massage the leaves for a few minutes and allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes before servicing. Refrigerate if not consumed, will last 2-4 days.
Kale Chips
What you need:
· Food Dehydrator.
What do you do:
After following the recipe above, place the kale on a teflex-lined dehydrator sheets and dehydrate until dry (6 to 8 hours). Set the dehydrator temperature for no higher than 105 degrees (still considered raw). The chips are best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and will last 2-4 weeks.
These dishes are raw, vegan, and extremely nutritious!
