Traditional Irish potato recipe that combines the hearty potato with the intensely nutritious kale. Kale is one of the healthiest vegetables on Earth. Kale is a descendent of the wild cabbage and had been a significant crop during ancient Roman times and a popular vegetable eaten by peasants in the Middle Ages. It is packed with at least 45 flavonoids that serve to detox the body and provide numerous anti-inflammatory benefits. Have a Happy St.Patrick’s Day and enjoy!
