Killer Kale Salad
Written By: Dr. Anastasia Halldin - healthymamainfo.com | Issue: 2016/04 - April
It seems like only a few years ago, kale was practically a forgotten part of Americans’ diet. Now, thanks to some innovative recipes and a greater commitment to eating healthy, kale is back on the menu.
