Red Candy Apples

Squash Risotto with Tuscan Kale
If the bumpy, bluish green leaves of Tuscan kale (also called dinosaur or lacinato kale) look intimidating, then try it first in this colourful risotto. Like frizzy kale, Tuscan kale is slightly bitter, so the sweet taste and creamy texture of butternut squash is a perfect match on this plate. This is sure to be a new regular on your dinnertime roster.
