Lemony Garlic Kale

Kale is a super healthy vegetable. It is a member of the broccoli family. What makes it good, in my opinion, is the seasonings you use to serve it with.

You will need a pan large enough to hold the kale. It also needs a tight fitting lid.

Ingredients:

12 cups torn up kale. Use whatever kind of kale you prefer.
Juice from 1 lemon(2 Tablespoons, approx.)
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1/2 to 1 clove garlic, minced- depending on how much garlic flavor you want
1 teaspoon soy sauce
salt and pepper to taste.

Add a small amount of water to your large pan and bring to a boil.
Add the kale, cover, turn down the heat and let it steam for 7- 10 minutes. It need to be tender, but don't overcook or the kale will be bitter.
While the kale is steaming, mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl.
Remove the kale from the heat and pour into a colander to drain any water.
Add to the lemon juice mixture and toss to completely coat.
Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.

Serve.

Serves 4-6.

Enjoy!
