Review: Sweet Potato & Kale with mustard crusty tofu
We enjoyed this meal last night. It was very tasty. The combination of sweet potato with kale was surprisingly delicious.

Kale and Potato Hash
There are a couple of meals that are very hearty hot meals for a cold rainy day. In Germany and Holland there are many of these days from mid-October to mid-May.
