Seasonal Recipes: Kale and Potatoes

It may seem like the dead of winter is no time for fresh produce, but there's good stuff to be had all year 'round! For a simple but delicious seasonal dish, turn to two winter staples: potatoes and kale. Potatoes are a good source of vitamin B6, vitamin C, and potassium, to name a few. Kale is a vegetable powerhouse: its high doses of vitamins A, C, and K supports vision, bone, and blood health, and its fiber content helps reduce levels of heart disease.
