Guest guest Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Yes, kale is softer and so yummy. The stalks are crunchy and the leaves are between spinach and kale in texture. I have a few good recipes in the chard folder. I love the Chardonnay recipe I created, Enjoy! MY favorite greens are dandelions though, they are slightly bitter but a good bitter, maybe I'm just stuck on the name...LOL Donna --- jjoint2001 <jjoint wrote: > , > " chelsea_cheetah " > <chelsea_cheetah wrote: > > > > The recipe section does have a whole greens folder > and inside it > > there is a kale folder.

Now I'm going to have to try chard after hearing so many positive comments on it. If my local Whole Foods has it, then it should be pretty soon. Thanks for reminding me to check the recipe file.

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 oh it is wonderful. it's leaves are like spinach while the stems have a crunchy texture, but not too crunchy, or stringy like celery, just mildly crunchy, it is a great mix. it comes in 3 colors, red, yellow and green. hugs, CHanda - jjoint2001 Saturday, September 30, 2006 1:22 AM Re: chard Hey Joan , Donnalilacflower <thelilacflower wrote: > > > Yes, kale is softer and so yummy.
