To prove that there is a celebration for just about everything, October 1 officially marked National Kale Day in the United States.

UHUX[@%zgHJdX4,p.fJ

That's right – National Kale Day.

f.-l_H;eiW[IBk0%nn;

The big day of national celebration may have passed, but that does not mean you should not eat kale.

First, what exactly is kale?

w]_Y(DP@mqX5AOi9I)2J

Kale is in the same family as broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage.

rav.!9e_,;1~-

For people in Russia, kale is kapusta. In Italy, it is called cavolo. Hindi speakers call it gobhi. Or if you speak Japanese, the name is karu.

65.5^J01VWnH,Iv

Different areas may have different names for kale, but it is a super healthy food -- whatever you call it.

h7O4O^JyXwea+P@G-Ckc

In fact, in the United States, many people are calling it a "SuperFood." That does not mean it can fly over tall buildings like Superman and rescue people. (Well, actually, maybe it does). It does keep people healthy and keeps them safe from sickness.

Kale's health benefits

Dy+xPCl-jv0_ZBxNQ#

Kale is filled with healthy nutrients. It provides 1,000 percent of the daily recommended allowance for vitamin K. In other words, by eating kale you more than meet the nutrition requirements set by United States health officials.

x;5QrF-7kWHN;+^

Kale also has nearly 100 percent of the daily suggested intake of both vitamin A and C. That information comes from the U.S Department of Agriculture. Kale also has folate, a B vitamin that is important for brain development. It also has many other essential vitamins and minerals. Kale is good for your heart and may help fight against some kinds of cancer.

Cooking terms and kale recipes

sV&cOW79&lHAbqEV_D~

The vegetable kale can be tough or hard. But it keeps more nutrients if you don't cook it too much. Here is a trick. Simply rub or massage the kale leaves with olive oil and seasonings. The leaves will break down and soften. The stems, or stalks, will remain tough. But you can sauté them or place them in soup for added vitamins and taste.

^VMw#_&6O8dn-rDbR

After you massage your kale, add a little more olive oil and sweet balsamic vinegar as a dressing – or your own favorite salad dressing. Add your favorite toppings for a healthy and delicious salad.

LplB((|FM+wQ0@^1X#n-

Steaming kale on the stovetop is a really healthy way of cooking this leafy green vegetable. First boil a pot of water and steam the kale on top in a steamer container.

y(mt^G4#SJ9r4kHT

You can also lightly sauté kale with garlic, some hot pepper and a little salt for a simple, delicious and healthy side dish. A side dish is a smaller dish that goes with the main meal.

Mtk#&c[pVyv6-g

Sautéed kale with nuts also goes well with fish. Kale is tasty when sautéed with foods like tomatoes or red peppers.

wbPk@wb1o)_WyS

You can mix or drizzle kale with olive oil and bake it for 15 minutes until it gets crispy. These are called kale chips. You can also bake it on top of pizza for a healthy topping.
