The first Wednesday in October marks National Kale Day and in honor of this healthy holiday, these tasty dishes are a great way to celebrate. From cheesy kale chips to healthy kale scones, these delicious recipes showcase the vegetable's versatity.
Kale has been making a huge impact in the health-focused consumer market. It has become the alternative ingredient in many dishes. This tasty veggie appears in vegan mac and cheeses, vegetarian tofu tacos and Irish-styled fast food burgers.

The leafy green veggie can be used in a smoothie or a salad and it can even be used to create crispy chips. With so many versatile dishes to try, kale is catering to each consumer's personal desires.
