Kale Chips & Other Winter Greens
Here's a link to the Utah State Extension Service's recipe for kale chips as well as a strawberry spinach salad. Scroll down to the chip recipe. Kale Chips
Ingredients:
1 bunch kale
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp seasoned salt
Directions:
1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie
sheet with parchment paper.
2. With a knife or kitchen shears, carefully remove
the leaves from the thick stems and tear into
bite size pieces. Wash and thoroughly dry kale
with a salad spinner. Drizzle kale with olive oil
and sprinkle with seasoning salt.
3. Bake until the edges brown but are not burned,
10 to 15 minutes.

Magic Syrup
Renee T. has shared this classic frothy vanilla and buttermilk syrup with me and now it's my go to recipe every time! --Karen S.
1/2 C. butter (Butter is best.)
1/2 C. buttermilk (Buttermilk substitute of 1/2 C. milk and 1 T of lemon juice is good, too.)
1 C. white sugar (Brown sugar is a good substitute.)
Heat till simmering. The longer you simmer the thicker it will be. It doesn't take long.
Take off heat and add:
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. scant of baking soda (This reacts with the acid in the buttermilk to make it foamy.)
