Tip of Stefano:

A small tip: kale is often twice as tasty when you reheat it in the pan or oven the next day, or even two days later.

Kale full of nutrients, Vitamin K and antioxidants. In addition delicious in recipes.

You simply cannot miss kale, this is actually one of the most healthy vegetables, contains a wide variety of nutrients and -for that matter- a whole lot of them. Moreover, kale contains so much different types of vitamins that it  exceeds the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI). No problem whatsoever, because this is actually a recommended minimum. The very high amount of vitamin K in kale influences our cells that have a positive impact on inflammation. Many lifestyle diseases are caused by small infections in body cells that allow diseases to emerge. Think of – for example- diabetes and cancer, but also cardiovascular diseases.

Kale versatile: use in soup, stamppot, stew or mixed in healthy salads.

Besides healthy, kale is very versatile. You can use it in countless ways in your dishes, even raw it tastes delicious. Try mixing it in your salad, stir fry with other vegetables, add in an omelet, make a kale soup or use it in a delicious stew, as shown in the following recipe. The combination with seitan makes it exquisite!

Stefano describes himself as colourful, loud, a vegan, a friend, a discoverer, a digital nomad and straightforward.Stefano changed tack and started to eat and live a healthy vegan lifestyle His life took a wholly different course when he became very ill. At the age of 33 he was going with all guns blazing, but he didn't spare a thought for his own health - he smoked, drank a lot, worked up to 16 hours a day and drank around two litres of coffee daily. Then he developed two serious hernias, as well as being very overweight. He realised that he could not continue this way and decided on a complete turnaround. He quit drinking and smoking and slowly changed his diet, until he finally went almost completely vegan.Vegan, a step further than vegetarian Stefano's recipes are all vegan. A vegan eats no animal products whatsoever, taking it a step beyond vegetarianism. Vegans don't eat eggs, dairy products or honey.

“Always buy the best quality seitan. The seitan you find in your average supermarket is often very tough. Seitan should have a tender texture. Organic health stores stock delicious seitan (I don’t often like to mention a brand, but Bertyn’s seitan is excellent).” groeneprinses.be
