The way to eat kale

Uniquely flavorful, nodding to traditional greens cooking.

olive oil and/or goose fat
clove garlic
kale leaves, ripped from the tough center ribs
roughly chopped baby bella or other mushrooms
salt and pepper
finely chopped and/or whole hot peppers to taste
sauerkraut--(I had about a cup leftover in the fridge)
finely chopped slices of Canadian bacon


Heat on medium the fat/oil in enameled cast iron casserole, add the ingredients in order listed, toss well periodically and cover and let simmer on medium low for about 40 minutes until kale softens somewhat and the fresh green color becomes more olive colored.

Best. Ever.
