Greens & Beans – this is our version – a family favorite quick side dish or dinner
Ingredients: Kale, red pepper flakes, onion, garlic, oil (or water), broth(veg or chicken) cannellini beans, (optional – cooked sausage) Instructions below
Dice onion and cook in pan over medium heat with a little oil or water and red pepper flakes, once clear but not brown add chopped garlic cook for 2-3 minutes, add a little water if onions and garlic start to brown, add chopped kale (yes-we eat the stems and all), add a cup or so of broth and add rinsed drained cannellini beans. Stir to coat and the kale will begin to wilt and turn dark green. Reduce heat and cook to your desired tenderness adding more broth if necessary. Feel free to add cooked sausage at this stage. Enjoy!
