The Benefits of using Kale in Salads
Personally I use two to three different Kale; dino or lacinato, curly green and curly red... I found one of my favorite Doctors and Educators gives us more reasons to use and then you can watch him make his favorite Kale salad.. next time I will post my video of my favorite Kale salad....... and the dressing I like to use with it...Benefits of Kale in Salad
