Sautéed Kale

So this is a great way to change up the collard greens side. This tastes like a non slimy collard or turnip greens recipe. Enjoy!

Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds young kale, stems and leaves coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely sliced
1/2 cup vegetable stock/broth or water
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar(I didn't do this)

Directions
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until soft, but not colored. Raise heat to high, add the stock and kale and toss to combine. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove cover and continue to cook, stirring until all the liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste and add vinegar.

**If you don't think your greens are done and your liquid is gone, just add more stock/broth.

  1. I've decided I am not a fan of Kale but because its such an easy and quick side to fix I wonder what could be added to make it a little better tasting...any ideas?
