Dinosaur Kale!

This stuff is delicious. I should have taken a picture... Apparently Lacinato (dinosaur) kale is less bitter than regular kale. It is "healthy" and this prep was fast and very good.

Over medium heat, cook minced garlic and sliced shallot in olive oil until it's not raw (but don't burn). Add 1/4 C water and chopped kale. Simmer 5-7 minutes until kale has cooked down.

Add 1/8 tea salt, 2 TB white wine, and 1/2 C veggie broth. Cover pan and simmer 10-15 minutes until the kale is tender.

Top with grated parmesan- goes great with Japanese short-grain "haiga" rice.
