This is a beautiful dish perfect for festive holiday meals. Kale is considered to be one of the most highly nutritious vegetables, with powerful antioxidant properties and is anti-inflammatory. Kale is a leafy green vegetable that belongs to the Brassica family, a group of vegetables including cabbage, collards and Brussels sprouts that have gained recent widespread attention due to their health promoting, sulfur-containing phytonutrients. Kale is very high in beta carotene, vitamin C, lutein and zeaxanthin and reasonably rich in calcium.
