Hey folks,
Storage Tip

Head Lettuce will keep longer refrigerated and stored in an airtight container or bag.
Quick radish pickles are a great topping for your burger or taco or a nice addition to your potato salad.

Crispy Roasted Kale
Ingredients
-
1 bunch Kale
-
2 TBSP olive oil
-
Salt and black pepper
Instructions
1.Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
2. Lay each kale leaf on a board and, with a small sharp knife, cut out the hard stem. Tear large leaves in half. Place the kale in a large bowl of water and wash it well. Drain the kale and dry it in a salad spinner. Dry the bowl, and put the kale back in the bowl.
3.Toss the kale with the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Divide the kale among 1-2 sheet pans. If you put too much kale on one pan, it will steam rather than roast and will never become crisp. Roast for 15 minutes, until crisp.
