Yup, you read that right – it’s time to massage your kale. By taking the time to massage your kale, it will become more tender, making it easier to chew and digest.
Simply add the chopped kale to a large bowl and top lightly with lemon juice and olive oil. Massage with clean hands for about 3 minutes to soften the leaves. Add a pinch of salt added near the end for more flavour.
This is a great way to infuse your kale with a touch of flavour!
