Kale
Kale has a unique flavor that varies depending on the variety and preparation method. If you can tolerate the bitter taste, kale is rich
in important micronutrients like calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese and selenium. It is also
a good source of vitamins, including vitamins A, B, E, C and K.
Avoid blanching and cooking kale
as this reduces the amount of water-soluble minerals, vitamins and phytochemicals in the leaves. Kale can be eaten raw in salads.
One cup of raw kale (21 grams) contains only 9 calories.
