I haven’t posted enough Kale recipes. In fact, I haven’t posted a single one. Most of this has to do with the fact that when we have Kale at the house, it gets used up too fast. Most of the time I like to juice Kale but I also like adding it to vegetable paella,…

Healthy Mashed Sweet Potatoes
I have no idea why but I hate regular white potatoes. My German and Irish ancestors must be appalled. Oh well. They also ate a lot of things that vegans have nightmares about ;) Just because I don’t like white potatoes, doesn’t mean I don’t want mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving. So if I don’t want…
