Leafy veggies are one of my favorites. It’s quite easy to include them in day to day cooking. My favorites are spinach, fenugreek leaves, kale, collard and chard. I generally use them to make green juices, green dal or mix with the roti.

This time when I bought the mixed power greens pack (Kale, chard and Spinach), I decided to use them in a much more appetizing dish. That’s how today’s dish was created – The Power Greens Kebab – A perfect blend of nutrients, spices and flavor 🙂

Here is the recipe for the healthy and delicious – Power Greens Kebab !
