Sauteed Kale
Well I think I’m out of the “Nurse Katie” woods 
Late Friday night Jeff turned a corner on the road to recovery from his wisdom tooth surgery and we had a really good weekend all things considered.
His diet consisted of Jell-0, pudding, milkshakes with Vega protein powder and AVOCADO!!! And frozen yogurt blended so it was “soft serve.” What a spoiled monkey
Thank you for all of your kind words and well wishes! We got them
My weekend was filled with fantastic and healthful food, including homemade Maple Baked Beans with steamed broccoli, greek yogurt bowls with banana, mixed berries, raw oats and cocao nibs, Easy Creamy Tomato Barley Risotto and leftover Roasted Veggie Infused Whole Wheat Turkey Lasagna!
And let’s not forget SAUTEED KALE!!!
You guessed it folks! The next recipe for the “It’s MY Time to Shine” segment that I am going to share with you is sautéed kale!
Sauteed kale really is one of those things that you can personalize to your own tastes but I thought I’d share my personal favourite twist.
This is just another delicious way to experiment with this beautiful and healthful leafy green!
PS…It’s SUPER easy to make! If that doesn’t make you want to try it out, I don’t know what will
I hope you enjoy!

I need to follow your kale lead! I keep buying it and then letting it sit in the fridge and go all limp and then i feel really really bad and i apologize to the Kale, lol!
And i forgot to mention i made a turkey lasagna when i was on blogging hiatus, yummmmmmmmm
Wilted kale still rocks though! A lot of times I forget about the kale in my crisper and then I’m left making limp kale chips…But they are still fantastic!
I love this kale recipe! I’m a huge huge fan of sun dried tomatoes..ie I use them in omelets, pasta, on top of salmon, and in sauces. And isn’t it amazing how delicious just a little bit of garlic and olive oil can make something taste?
Great photos by the way!
I love sun dried tomatoes too…They add such a beautiful mediterranean flare to almost anything!
Adding garlic and olive oil is truly fantastic, I agree!
Thank you!
Mmmm KALE!

Mmmmm….love the kale, as always. There really is so much ou can do with it….nev lets me down!
I still haven’t tried kale, I dunno why I can’t seem to get into it.
Oh, and I wish you were my nurse when I needed one because you feed your patient very well!
I really encourage you to try kale…It’s truly fantastic and SO healthful!
PS my husband wouldn’t touch kale if it was covered in chocolate and caramel
I am obsessed with kale lately! I don’t like it raw, but I love it wilted or sauteed. YUMMY
You do feed your patient very well…he’s a lucky guy!
Well thank you my dear!!!

Mmm, yum! I have a ton of kale right now so I’ll be sure to make this as soon as possible. I never really fancy it up- I usually just roast it with no flavors, so this looks especially delicious.
