Kale is a super vegetable packed with vitamins, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer nutrients. Kale belongs to the Brassica family. Curly green kale has a robust taste, red or purple is more mild. One cup of cooked kale with walnuts has 155 calories, 11 g. carbohydrate, 5 g. fiber, 6 g. protein, 382% RDI vitamin A, 55% vitamin C and 18% calcium.

Ingredients:
1 bunch kale
1/4 cup broth or water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon grass 
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/2 cup walnuts
2 teaspoons Gamasio (sesame seed sprinkle)

Wash the kale. Stack the leaves and slice into 1/4 inch strips. Discard the bottom of the stem. Sprinkle the kale with lemon juice.



Heat the broth or water in a skillet. Add the kale, ginger, garlic and lemon grass and saute until the kale is wilted, about 8 to 10 minutes.


Remove from heat. Sprinkle with vinegar, Gamasio and walnuts. Serve warm.
