You might not realize it from looking at my blog, where the top categories are dessert, Heavenly Cake Bakers, and chocolate, but I’m trying to make smarter food choices – more produce, organic when possible, less animal fat. Today’s lunch as a satisfying effort toward that worthy goal. (It will be interesting to see if the vegetable category will surpass the sweets in coming months.)
Ingredients
2 – 3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
kale salad mix (sold in 1 lb. bags at Whole Foods, includes shredded purple cabbage and carrots)
baby spinach leaves
salt, pepper, red pepper flakes
2 – 4 tablespoons water
1 – 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
Directions
- Add oil and onion to a large frying pan, cook over medium-high heat
- When the onion begins to caramelize, add garlic and cook for just a minute or two
- Add kale and spinach (I haven’t given amounts in the list above, I probably used 3 – 4 cups of each)
- Season with spices and add water to steam greens
- Cook until kale and spinach are wilted
- Sprinkle with vinegar
