The most popular and widely consumed “vegetable” among Americans is the potato. While it contains 70% of your daily Vitamin C needs along with 25%+ potassium and B-6 and a nice boost of fiber, let’s be honest and admit that most people are not eating the whole potato, skin and all.

Confession: I rarely consume the recommended 2 servings of fish per week (8-12oz). This isn’t because I don’t like fish. On the contrary, I adore fish and most types of seafood including scallops, crab, and lobster! And all through pregnancy I have been dreaming of some really good sushi!!

But, I learned in those early months as a newlywed I can either view the glass as half full or empty. Right?!

Needless to say, I set out to make the crunchiest, most flavorful kale chips he could imagine. With a little cooking smarts and intense motivation to wow his palate, I won him over.
There are few things as satisfying as walking into the kitchen to wonderful aromas wafting through the air and delicious food ready to be enjoyed…without having to do any work!
