Hi, I’m Alison and I write New Life as New Wife.

I started "New Life as New Wife" in 2008 as a spin off to my wedding blog A Day in the life of a Rockstar Bride.

Like life, my blog has changed. My blog has now transitioned into the day-to-day challenges including how to save money, adjusting to life as a new home owner, and just recently, how to adjust to life after re-quitting my corporate job.

Prior to becoming a "grown-up", I spent the last 6 to 9 years as an IT professional, dance instructor and an awesome Rockstar wife.

Now, I walk dogs, teach yoga, teach dance and rockout as a the wife of a rockstar.

Kale Thursday - curried couscous with krispy kale

Friday, April 8, 2011


After I saw this shirt on Kath Eats, I knew I needed it. I don't know why, I just loved it. Thing is, I know I've had kale before, but couldn't tell you what it looks like or taste like. So, in order to stand behind my future-new-shirt, I decided to cook with kale every thursday. Kale Thursday.

For my very first kale recipe, I more or less made curried couscous with krispy kale:


I say more or less because I didn't have everything the recipe called for, but I must admit, it was pretty darn awesome regardless. Anything that has curry in it floats this boat in a huge way. M'm .... curry.

Next week, I plan to make these kale chips

So tell me, what are your favourite kale recipes?

I most definitely need to collect more kale recipes, I have a really hard time working it into our dishes, but it's SO healthy. I like making kale green monster smoothies, the texture is a little bit weird but I like how healthy it is. I'm going to give this recipe a try next time I get some kale in my CSA box!
