kale walnut pesto

My (I hope to be soon) sister in law was so kind to type up this yummy recipe for me to post.  I make a similar version of it and its amazing how simple this nutrient dense little number is.  With kale it can provide you with some special cholesterol-lowering benefits if you cook it by steaming (less if you don't).  Kale's nutrient richness stands out in three particular areas: (1) antioxidant nutrients, (2) anti-inflammatory nutrients, and (3) anti-cancer nutrients in the form of glucosinolates.  It is also super easy to grow and will also grow well into the fall.  You also may add parsley on top of this to really bring the flavor and health benefits up even higher.  Enjoy!!
