I make this for my son and I and we love it! I make this at least once a week. Will try substituting the kale with spinach.

This is just amazing!  I love greens unfortunately my husband does not. Since there is only the two of us I have tons of leftovers.  This is way too much for one person to eat a one sitting so I separate the leftovers and place in freezer bags or containers and freeze.  When craving a serving I just thaw bag in hot water and reheat.  Tastes just as good as it did when made fresh and you don’t have to wait for a new batch to prep and cook.  But honestly this is so tasty that you could eat it everyday and not grow tired of it.  I first saw this on her Food Network show and couldn’t wait to try it.  She is so down-home and cooks just like my mother and grandmother did.

Excellent. I had this with a simple roast chicken. The complexity of flavors in the kale made it a really great side!
