super easy
The first time I came across purple kale at my local farmer’s market I knew it would turn into
something wonderful and nutritious. Kale is a super food with the highest ratio of nutrients to
calories. Adding raw walnuts and garlic takes the nutrient levels up a few more notches, and
then olive oil and sea salt pull it all together with flavor and texture. Use as a spread on sandwiches, pasta and crackers – it’s versatile, and will keep in your fridge for at least a week.
