Kale
by Wayne Wysocki I'm eating kale to slim my waist Lord knows it's not because of taste It took some while to appreciate The leafy green I love to hate The fibrous queen of super foods Can satisfy nutrition prudes, And comes in leafy shapes galore: Curly, Tuscan, dinosaur For variation I can gnaw This crucifer sautéed or raw, Just as is, or baked as chips, A...
