CVap Quiche with Fresh Kale

This quiche with fresh kale, which was shared with us by the late Chef Jim Whaley, is fluffy and full of flavor. Fresh kale is one of our favorite nutrient-packed, leafy greens! The many nutritional benefits of kale include being an excellent source of antioxidant vitamins K, C, A, and it is also a good source of fiber, magnesium, potassium, iron, and more. It really is a superstar vegetable, and it plays a starring role in this recipe. If you’ve read our previous blog posts about how beautifully CVap® technology handles eggs and custards, you know the consistency of the finished quiche will be delicate and fluffy.
