Yogurt Herb Dip with Roasted Veggies
There’s a running joke at our book club pot luck that I always bring dishes made with cheese.

Sautéed Kale
Y’all, I totally think I figured out this whole kale thing. I made some the other night just by throwing some things in a pan and it totally worked. I have officially mastered kale. Simply sauté chopped kale in a pan with olive oil, garlic, and salt. That’s pretty much what everyone does blah blah…
