Ah so yummy, crispy kale chips

Finding excuses to eat more of the nutritious good greens? If you haven't yet tried kale chips at home, this will blow your mind to see how simple and healthy chips could get!

Cruciferous veggies are an integral part of 'functional foods'. These foods have benefits beyond basic nutrition, including disease prevention and managing chronic diseases.

"Cruciferous vegetables are high in due to their cancer-fighting properties, have high levels of vitamin C, vitamin E, and vitamin K, carotenoids such as beta-carotene and lutein; folate, minerals and fiber"

Even though the summers in Minnesota is so short-lived, I never miss any opportunity to grow my small vegetable garden. Growing veggies in containers (on the deck to prevent from critters) is one of my favorite things to do in the summers, especially the greens! Kale and collard greens are my favorite greens, alongside fresh herbs! :)
