Do you want to love kale, but you don’t know how to work with this veggie? Kale is like the dork in a high school movie that turns into the most popular kid in class.

From being known as “that garnish on the salad bar at Pizza Hut” in the 1990’s to being the hottest green on the market today… kale has come a long way. There are even shirts that people wear that says, “hail the kale” or “kale yes!” or just simply “KALE.”

Kale and I have this in common: We are both hearty, but we are better after being massaged.

None of these recipes are complicated and fancy, even if they look it. They are actually super easy. Don't you love when pretty plates are actually the simplest? This roundup of kale recipes has you covered for a variety of different kids of meals.
