Sautéed Kale with Hazelnut Gremolata



[js]
This dish is as simple as it can be.

It's kale simply sautéed in oil with garlic and pepper flakes, then finished with a squeeze of lemon. We served it with our hazelnut gremolata.

Why is this a separate post? Well, I just wanted to point out that natural light is the best! Woohoo. Of course, the day after this was back to doom and gloom. But, I'll take what I can get.

  4. This looks delicious. You're right - natural light is best. Unfortunately I think we're in the same boat right now... spring will come eventually, right?

  5. You really can't beat simply sauteed greens -- for flavor and nutrition.

    Oh no! Maybe you can train him to like them. =) I didn't use to like them that much... but they slowly grew on me. They're great!

    Thanks! We did breadcrumbs on kale before, so I thought this would be a natural extension of that.
