Recipe for oh so delish Marinated Kale Salad

So once again I've been away from it for a bit.  No internet at home makes this much more difficult than I thought.  Hopefully that will be remedied soon! 

So I posted a pic of the Kale Salad and it truly is to die for!  The hubby complains when I make it because I don't leave enough for him!  LOL...anyway...here is the easy recipe.

Marinated Kale Salad

I use two large bunches of fresh Kale, destemmed (mostly) and coarsely chopped
couple cans of vegetable broth or stock
garlic cloves, minced, about 2 t. or to taste.
lemon pepper seasoning, about 1 t. or to taste
sea salt to taste
about 1 T. crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.
half a lime
assorted raw veggies, sliced for sauteing or grilling  I use sweet onions and red/yellow peppers, sometimes zucchini and yellow squash as well

Simply start with the bottom of a large soup pot covered with about an inch of veggie broth.  Bring it to a boil and add the kale.  Stir immediately and keep stirring frequently until it begins to wilt.  Add all the rest of the ingredients except the half a lime and raw veggies.  Allow to simmer, stirring frequently, for about 15 min. tops.  Squeeze the half a lime over the whole thing. Add more veg. broth if needed.  I like some juice on it.  I then season to taste with some sea salt. Remove from heat and set aside.

Now heat up a skillet, add some more veg broth to cover bottom of pan, when it's bubbling add your raw veggies and cook to desired doneness.  Again I just season this with some sea salt to taste. 

To serve simply put a bit bunch of the Kale in a bowl, add sauted veggies to the top and EAT, EAT, EAT!

You can also serve this over some brown rice if you'd like...so yummy and filling!
