3 kale recipes that are so delicious you’ll forget they’re healthy

There is no denying that when it comes to hipster food, kale has been doing the rounds (and then some) the last couple of years.

And while many of us have by now absolutely gathered that this leafy green veg is something we should be consuming more of, not all of us have quite embraced it. Yet. Sure we know you can drink it in juice form, and some even turn it into healthy crisps, but were you aware there are so many more ways to enjoy this nutritional little powerhouse? To convince you, we have rounded up three of our current favourite kale recipes, that are all so YUM, you totally forget they are in fact really good for you. Don't believe us? Why not give these a whirl this weekend? 1. Linguine with Kale & Caramelized Onions Give your Friday pasta a whole new spin with this tasty dish. (Serves 4) Ingredients
