Wilted Kale, a simple way to eat your greens.
Wilted Kale is a terrific way to get your Vitamin C.
I love this quick recipe for Wilted Kale. This 4-ingredient recipe also works well with Spinach or Swiss Chard if you prefer those greens. Collard greens, although delicious, are a heavier green and take longer to cook, but you can use the same ingredients.
Cooking Wilted Kale takes just a few minutes so it is an excellent choice any day of the week. It has an abundance of flavor and lots of good nutrition, including Vitamin C and Iron, making it a wonderful cold fighter. I love it topped with Black Bean Ful, along side Sautéed Cod, or with Eggplant Gina.

What You Need
For this recipe you need a good sauté pan (and while you are at it, buy yourself a full set of great pans), measuring cups and spoons, a knife and a cutting board. And you also need Red Pepper Flakes. But what you really want is some terrific dinnerware and glassware, am I right?
