    Kale Pesto Chicken

    A healthy dinner is always the best way to go! And it's so easy to do in the summer. Just grill up Tuscan flavored chicken breasts and then top with fresh mozzarella and kale pesto. Wow! Now we're talking! Keep some kale pesto on hand in your fridge and you'll be able to put a fabulous dinner on the table with just four ingredients! Kale pesto, made from the ever-popular super food, is rich in beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C and calcium. It also has anti-cancer properties, boosts DNA repair in cells, lowers cholesterol and decreases the absorption of dietary fat. Yes, please top my grilled chicken with kale pesto!
