Batch-a-Kale Greens

Kale Greens, specificly prepared with Dinosaur (aka Lacinato) is the BEST! Perfectly savory, substantive and hearty. Around this time of year I viscously crave them at every meal. Often it just becomes and easy meal in its self! Maybe you’ve seen the Herbivore T, “Only Kale Can save us now?”  Well this recipe will certainly make you a bit healthier and save some dollars, as this is a super cheap meal to make.  If you’ve got $3 you have yourself 2 meals.  I snagged this recipe from a long out of print Soul Veg cookbook that I don’t even have anymore.  I’ve made them so much from memory, its an easy one.

2 Bunches of Dinosaur Kale.

1/4 White Onion, small Dice

1 Tomato with out the seeds, cubed

1/2Cup Nutritional Yeast

1TB onion powder

1TB Garlic Powder

2tsp Salt

Pepper to taste

1TBS Olive Oil

1/3Cup Water

Rip up the washed Kale with your hands into small chunks, dice the onion, and cube the tomato. Stuff all these into a 3QT Pot with a lid.  Add the Nutritional Yeast, Onion/Garlic Powder, Salt/Pepper into the pot.

Pour the Olive Oil and Water to the pot and turn the burner on low.  Go watch two skate videos. (about an hour) Then eat and watch another skate video.

This is what Dinosaur Kale looks like raw. Like dinosaur skin, eh?  I made a great batch to pair with some sauerkraut, vegan ham, and mashed potatoes with Tofuttie “Better Then Sour Cream” for a German New Years Dinner.

Looks pretty tasty! Happy New Year Everyone!
