    kale with pine nuts

    Prep time: 25 minutes
    Servings: 4

    Ingredients:
    1 lb. kale
    4 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
    2 tsp. sea salt
    1 sliced red onion
    1 crushed garlic clove
    ¼ cup toasted pine nuts
    Small lemon

    Rinse greens and place in a large pot with 2 cups of water. Cover on high heat and bring to a boil. Then, still covered, reduce to medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    While greens are steaming, combine the following in a large sauté pan: 3 tbsp. olive oil, salt, onion, and garlic. When the onion slices are translucent, add pine nuts, lower heat, and cover.

    By this time, the kale should be ready. Drain the kale, and toss it gently with the sautéed mixture. Plate and drizzle with an additional tablespoon of olive oil and juice from half a lemon. Garnish with the other half of the lemon sliced. Salt and pepper to taste.
