Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds kale collards, mustard, beet leaves, spinach (chopped)
  • 1 small onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1 small tomato chopped
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 teaspoons lime or lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup almonds garnish

Instructions

  • Wash the kale thoroughly and drain the excess water. Trim off the tough stems.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté until it becomes translucent.
  • Add the thinly sliced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute until the garlic is fragrant.
  • Stir in the diced red bell pepper and continue to sauté for another minute.
  • Add the chopped tomato to the skillet and cook for about two minutes until it begins to break down.
  • Add the chopped kale to the skillet and stir to mix well with the other ingredients. Sauté for a couple of minutes until the kale starts to wilt.
  • Pour in the vegetable broth, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes until the kale is tender.
  • Uncover the skillet, and stir in the lime or lemon juice. Continue to cook for another minute or two until most of the broth has evaporated.
  • Adjust the seasoning as necessary.
  • Transfer the sautéed kale to a serving dish and sprinkle with the almonds for garnish.
