Warm Kale Salad

This is probably one of the easiest and best sides you can make.  Not only is it great for you but it is quick and simple to throw together. You can also be creative and add different things you have on hand.  I apologize for a less than specific recipe... this has been one of those things that I just throw together and kind of saute until it looks good.  I tried to relay below.... 



Warm Kale Salad

What you Need:
-Lots of Kale, chopped and separated from stem
-1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
-1 Tablespoon of Balsamic Vinegar
-1 large clove of garlic, minced
-1/8 cup of Sun dried Tomatoes (not packed in oil)
-Goat Cheese Crumbles to taste
-Salt/Pepper to taste
-Almonds (optional)

What you Need:
-Over low heat put Olive Oil in a saute pan and let warm. Once warm, place leafy greens in pan.
-Add sun dried tomatoes, almonds and salt and pepper, stirring frequently so all ingredients mix well. 
-You are going to saute greens for about 15-20  minutes, when you only have about 3-4 minutes left, add garlic and drizzle with balsamic. Continue to mix well. 
-Kale will be soft but not completely wilted. Remove from heat, sprinkle with cheese and enjoy! 
**keep in mind the Kale will shrink considerably.  I always use a great deal and think it will be enough for 2 but always end up wanting more!
