Menu Monday, August 11

We have just two weeks before we start school and I have a list of things to do a mile long. 

This week, one of my goals to to preserve more of our kale crop which has been especially good this year.  I have been dehydrating and making kale powder (dried and then powdered in my food processor) to sprinkle in eggs, soups, sauces, etc., and plan to do a little more.  I'm also going to freeze some for vegetable and bean soups that we love so much during the fall and winter.  Just blanch washed leaves for about 2 minutes, remove and place leaves in cold water, drain well, chop, and place in marked freezer containers.
