Tu rkeyKALE

MEATBALLS SERVES

4

dding kale to your meatballs acts as a great binder and of course increases the nutrient profile enormously! Kale is a great source of calcium, Vitamin A, C and K.

DIRECTIONS STEP ONE

Cover a prep sheet or tray with parchment paper. Heat a cast iron or stainless steel sauté pan on low heat. Make sure the pan has some sort of lid, it does not have to be a match but something that will work.

STEP TWO

In a large mixing bowl, mix together the garlic, tomato paste, salt, paprika and pepper. Add the kale and mix well. Add the turkey and mix well.

STEP THREE

INGREDIENTS • 1 pound of minced turkey • 1 cup defrosted frozen kale, excess liquid squeezed out before measuring, I use Cookin’ Greens (about 2 cups frozen) • 1 large clove garlic, minced • 1 tbsp tomato paste • 3/4 tsp sea salt • 1/2 tsp paprika • 1/4 tsp medium-grind black pepper • 3 tbsp olive oil for the pan NOTE: I usually defrost the frozen kale by leaving

it out at room temperature for about 1 hour, or you can put it in the microwave, just make sure it is cooled before adding it to the turkey.

Shape into 16 medium size balls.

STEP FOUR

Heat the olive oil in the pan and place the turkey balls in the oil, raise the heat to medium and fry on one side for about 2-3 minutes, flip and repeat.

Add 2-3 tbsp of water to the pan and immediately cover the pan and cook for 8 minutes.

STEP FIVE

Eat on their own with the pan juices or add to your favourite tomato sauce.

3 Steps to a

NEW ROOF sound roof protects your home and family, but after a particularly rough winter it is vulnerable to wear and tear.

Jack Rende, senior merchant for building materials at the Home Depot Canada shares three steps to a roof that stops leaks and increases curb appeal.

SELF-INSPECTION.

you may need to replace your roof include missing, blistering and curling shingles; deteriorating chimney flashing; and shingle granules in the gutters. Other signs include water stains, leaks, mould, mildew and daylight peeking through roof boards in the attic.

IN-HOME CONSULTATION.

At the initial consultation, an installations Sun, snow, ice, branches and wind can all age services consultant assesses and measures or damage roofing materials. Common signs the roof, presents samples, discusses a

budget and outlines the timeline. To best prepare for this appointment, catalogue any damage; note any personal style, brand and colour preferences; and determine your budget. Factors to consider when choosing a roof are style, colour, durability, warranties and installation. For an on-trend look with great quality, consider Timberline High-Definition shingles from GAF with high definition colour blends and Advanced Protection technology.

REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT. Arrange a pre-installation inspection as well as an installation date for your new roof. Removal of existing roofing materials includes the delivery of disposal bins to ensure a thorough cleanup is accomplished. Once the project is complete, the installer reviews the project and performs a final inspection.

DESIGN TRENDS for your home Cobalt U8 Century Paint from Benjamin Moore

12

ach year we are presented with new and innovative trends in design and home décor.

But many of us often wonder how to translate these daring styles into our own homes for livability.

Here, SHARON GRECH, Benjamin Moore colour and design expert, shares her tips for incorporating bold trends into your home.

TOUCH OF VELVET. While you may remember velvet as a popular midcentury fabric, it has recently made a resurgence in home décor. Known for its distinctively smooth, rich texture, velvet is a popular way to make a space look and feel luxurious.

Wild Caraway U3 Century Paint from Benjamin Moore

Açaí R8 Century Paint from Benjamin Moore

“Whether you want to invest in a striking velvet sofa or velvet accent pillows, either option will add that sophisticated feel to a space. Another great way to incorporate velvet into a room is by using premium, soft-touch matte paint on a feature wall,” suggests Grech.

Benjamin Moore Century is a first of-its-kind paint that creates a tactile experience, similar to that of a soft leather glove. Bedrooms, dining rooms and powder rooms are all great spaces to consider making a bold statement with a feature wall.

GORGEOUS GEOMETRICS. When it comes to geometric shapes and patterns, a little can go a long way, so you want to ensure the pattern isn't competing with other elements in the space. Incorporate this trend without going overboard by using accents.

Backsplashes are the perfect place to be daring with geometric patterns. Kitchens and bathrooms are ideal for adding geometry in design as they contain relatively small and focused areas. If you are looking for an option that requires a little less commitment, try incorporating accessories with a geo structure or pattern. Geometricinspired coffee tables and mirrors can emulate that same modern look without having to make a big commitment in your space or budget. >>>

MARVELOUS METALS. Gone are the days of choosing between silver and gold.

We've expanded our metallic palette to include even more metals like chrome, rose gold, copper and brass. The art of mixing metals and metallic tones is being applied in details throughout the entire home to add depth and intrigue into a space.

“METALS ARE NO LONGER RESERVED FOR FAUCETS AND FIXTURES,” says Grech.

“One of the reasons I love this trend is because of its adaptability. Metals complement so many different hues, which make them easy to add into a space and coordinate with existing décor.”
