Kale is back and it’s bringing some friends to the party. Try this unique and healthy salad at home or at your next potluck. Did you know that eating leafy greens like kale and spinach are not just good for your overall health but they are also good for your teeth? They are high in calcium, which builds your teeth’s enamel.

Additionally, the black beans are another source of calcium. Bon(e) appetit!
