What I've been cooking
Jul. 19th, 2009 09:22 amWe went in with some friends to buy a share from a local farm and got our first delivery on Thursday. I've been reading up on what to do with Kale and bok choy and napa cabbage since I haven't used them much before.
I posted about my adventures with kale here.
I also read up on nutrition- boy, kale is a nutritional superstar! One cup has 13 times your RDA of vitamin K, almost twice your RDA of vitamin A, 88 percent of your vitamin C and almost 10 percent of your RDA for calcium, all for under 40 calories. Pretty good nutritional density!
As a side dish, I made stir-fried green beans with ginger and garlic, and that was really yum, too!
