Health and fertility benefits of Grilled Green Tomatoes with Burrata and Green Juice

Kale is an excellent source of calcium, which has an important role in egg maturation and follicle development in the ovaries.

Ingredients

1/2 small romaine heart, coarsely chopped
1/4 English hothouse cucumber or 1/2 Persian cucumber, coarsely chopped
1 cup (packed) torn kale leaves
3/4 cup cilantro leaves with tender stems
1 tablespoon (or more) fresh lime juice
Kosher salt

Instructions

Blend romaine, cucumber, kale, cilantro, and 1/4 cup water in a blender until fairly smooth, about 1 minute. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl or measuring glass, pressing on solids to release as much liquid as possible; you should have about 1/2 cup. (Alternatively, you can do this step in a juicer.) Stir in lime juice and season with salt. Taste and adjust flavor with more lime juice, if needed.
