Simple Truth Organic Freshly Frozen Chopped Kale
What it is
This is a package of finely chopped kale that has been flash-frozen shortly after harvesting. The freezing process helps to preserve the kale's natural color and texture. It is a convenient way to incorporate nutrient-rich greens into your diet without the need for washing and chopping fresh kale. The kale is sourced organically, meaning it was grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
How people cook with it
Frozen chopped kale is a versatile ingredient that can be added to a wide variety of dishes. It cooks quickly and easily, making it a go-to for busy cooks.
- Added to smoothies
- Stirred into soups

- Baked into casseroles
You can add this frozen chopped kale directly to your cooking without thawing. For soups, stews, and sauces, simply stir it in during the last few minutes of simmering. When adding to pasta or stir-fries, incorporate it towards the end of the cooking process to allow it to heat through. It can also be sautéed in a pan with a little oil and garlic for a quick side dish. For smoothies, add a handful to your blender along with your other ingredients.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh kale, which requires washing, de-stemming, and chopping, this product is pre-prepped. The freezing method can sometimes result in a slightly softer texture compared to raw, fresh kale, making it ideal for cooked applications where texture is less critical.
