How To Pressure Can Your Garden Kale<\/a><\/h3>\n
\n

Every year we plant kale in both our greenhouse and our garden. We choose red Russian kale because it is cold hearty and grows fast! We eat it in a salad every night during the summer and when it starts to cool off, we save it!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Every year we plant kale in both our greenhouse and our garden. We choose red Russian kale because it is cold hearty and grows fast! We eat it in a salad every night during the summer and when it starts to cool off, we save it!<\/p>\n

Kale is great for us because it can withstand a pretty decent frost before it starts to go limp and die off. I cut our kale on November 20 from outside and the greenhouse and it was still crisp. We don\u2019t like food, especially nutrition-packed greens, to go to waste, so we can do everything we can. It\u2019s surprisingly easy and really good!<\/p>\n

Red Russian Kale \u2013 A Powerful Punch of Protein and Antioxidants<\/a><\/p>\n

First, we can kale for two reasons, one because we love it and two because we can! But kale is great for you and if your kids grow up eating it, they won\u2019t have an aversion to it when it\u2019s in a salad. In fact, it\u2019s often called a \u201csuperfood\u201d and it\u2019s incredibly easy to grow even in cooler climates. \u00a0A single serving (one cup) contains more than a day\u2019s worth of vitamin A requirement, which is important for eye health and immune function. It is also full of vitamins K, C, and\u00a0B6<\/span>\u00a0as well as manganese, copper, calcium, and magnesium. A can of cooked kale has a mere 32 calories, 2.2g of dietary fiber, 2.3g of protein, 2.55mg of iron, and 198.90 mg of calcium.<\/p>\n
