Asian Kale Chips


I never thought I could get my family to love kale until I made kale chips. 
It might sound odd but really, they are easy Kale eater and quick to make and you can season them with your favorite seasonings and it satisfies the salty and crunchy texture that we love from chips.
Both of my girls have enjoyed them no matter what the seasoning.
You can just do a simple salt and pepper seasoning to start and massage the leaves with olive oil. The sky is the limit on the different types of kale chip seasoning you can use so be creative! Here’s my asian kale chips recipe. 
Tamari sauce is a version of soy sauce that has a stronger flavor so less is more. I just bought myself a big jug of it here because I use a lot of soy sauce in my house.This is a fabulous price for the amount and this brand uses NON GMO soy and is gluten free.  
Bon appetite! 
Ingredients
  1. 1 bunch of kale
  2. 2 tbsp olive oil
  3. 1 tbsp sesame oil
  4. 1 tbsp tamari sauce (non GMO soy sauce)
  5. 1 clove garlic minced
  6. handful of black sesame seeds
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
  2. Rinse kale and put into a large bowl.
  3. Whisk together the olive oil, sesame oil, tamari sauce and garlic clove together.
  4. Drizzle mixture all over kale.
  5. Gently massage each kale leave with the mixture so that each leaf is nicely coated.
  6. Place leaves on baking sheet and cook in the oven for 10 minutes. Cook time could vary depending on the type and thickness of kale. Bake until crispy.

My brother teaches me something

I decided to write my brother a letter last week. While I sat down to write the letter, it dawned on me that there were some words he needed to hear. Chris reminded me that I might be the only person in the world that understands him because of experiencing the same childhood. First, I told him I was proud of him for working hard to stay out of trouble and keep a job. These are words that we both long to hear from our parents. Our desire to hear these words from them pushed us to act in two very different ways. Second, I told him that I admired him. That might sound strange intiailly but the last time that I saw him was at dinner at my parent's house. Before he left, he leaned down to give a hug to my father who was laying in the recliner. Dad didn't reciprocate, but I can't imagine how much courage and forgiveness had gone through Thomas's heart to be able to do that. I'm shamed to admit that I can only remember hugging my dad 2 times in my adult life. ...

Spring

It's hard to believe we've been in TN for almost 10 months. We've just about made it through all the season. I have to admit that it was quite beautiful to experience the fall leaves for more than a day that we might have seen in Charleston. The winter was a rough initiation but I made it. I'm pretty sure I made every attempt not to leave the house, but the snow pretty much helped with that. It seems that the seasons have changed once again overnight. Literally, in one day, the leaves on the tree next to our house have gone from barren to full of green. Bushes and trees are flowering everywhere. There's something so refreshing about spring. While all the seasons are beautiful, spring represents new life. What a perfect time for Lana to arrive!

Nourishing Cabbage Roll Soup

If you don’t like cabbage, I encourage you to try this recipe before you write it off.  This is my current favorite go to recipe right now and it’s a hit with the whole family. It’s warm, filling and nourishing. It’s much like cabbage rolls but without the work of stuffing and rolling those cabbage leaves but just as good, if not better. This soup reheats well and we enjoy it as leftovers. I also like to add collard greens to this soup but you can leave that out.  Ingredients 1 onion, diced 3 cloves, minced 1 lb grass fed beef 1/2 lb pastured spicy pork sausage 3/4 cup of basamati rice 1 medium cabbage, chopped (core removed) 1 bunch of collard greens (leaves cut from stems and chopped) 1 quart of canned diced tomatoes 2 tbsp tomato paste 4 cups of bone broth (I used pork, but really any will do). 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp thyme 1 tsp Celtic sea salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1 tbsp Worchestershire sauce Instructions In a large pot, saute onion, garlic ...
