Super Kale Vegetarian Tarts

Posted 2014-10-27 by GiGi GMV follow
Kale is the latest superfood and it contains high levels of much-needed vitamins and minerals.

Fibrous kale has become one of my favourite vegetables to use. There is no use for left-over roasted vegetables that is more elegant than this. You've got to love these healthy and delicious kale vegetarian tarts.



I reduced the size of the tarts for the perfect party finger food - healthy eating also means healthy portions! But you can make one big tart if you prefer.
