Easy Recipe - Kale!


I love the Red Russian Kale that grows nearby.  When de-stalked properly and simmered in a little organic Better than Bouillon or broth, it melts like spinach in butter.  Any kale will work well in this recipe, and if its a hardier variety like red russian, be sure to cut out the stalks.

Kale!

1 bunch of red russian kale (any variety will work), stems removed, chopped coarsley
2-4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 teaspoon oil (Canola probably)
8 oz chicken broth (I use 1Tablespoon organic Better than Bouillon chicken base + water!)

Saute the garlic in the oil for a few minutes over medium heat. Rinse the kale thoroughly, but don't shake the water off.  Add kale and water drippings to hot pan and steam for about 3 minutes until kale starts to wilt, add broth, turn to low and simmer for about 10/15 minutes until soft and cooked.

add a little fresh pepper, serve with tongs.
*to my taste, no salt needed because of the broth
