KALE APPLE LEEK TOPPING
This makes a great topping for a buckwheat cracker (recipe below) or for a crepe.
1 leek, sliced into half moons
1 apple, grated
1/2 bunch of dino kale, chiffonaded [i.e. de-stem and stack leaves, roll them up like a cigar and thinly slice crosswise - Debbie]
1/4 C parsley, plus more for garnish
1 tbsp. ghee or butter
1 tbsp. olive oil
lemon juice to keep the apples from browning
1/4 C creme fraiche
1. Add the ghee or butter to a medium saute pan and heat over medium high heat. Add the leeks and saute for 5 minutes, until tender. Add the apple and saute for another 2 minutes. Add the kale and cook until just wilted. Turn off the heat and add the parsley, olive oil, and sea salt and pepper to taste.
2. Once the mixture has cooled, mince it and mix in the creme fraiche.
3. Fill a pastry bag with a large opening and pipe the mixture onto a buckwheat cracker. Top with a small dollop of creme fraiche and minced parsley.

White Cabbage Salad with Dates
also from ‘Organic & Wholefoods’
[definitely a recipe much different than others I’ve come across for cabbage!]
1 small white cabbage
1 garlic clove
1 small onion
1 ¼ C sour cream
2 tbsp. olive oil
3 tbsp. white wine vinegar
1 tbsp. honey
1 tbsp. tumeric
1 pinch cinnamon
1 tsp. ginger powder
1 tsp. cardamom
1 pinch cayenne pepper
white pepper
1 tsp. coarse salt
5 dates
Cut the cabbage into fine strips [I’d shred with a 1mm blade in my food processor]. Make a marinade from the cream, olive oil, vinegar, honey, and spices. Season well, and marinate the cabbage for 60 minutes.
Pit the dates, chop into small pieces, stir into the cabbage, check the seasoning, and serve.
