Meatless Friday : Kale Pasta & Rolled Grilled Cheese - A Bountiful Love

Meatless Friday : Kale Pasta & Rolled Grilled Cheese

I like a simple meal. And once or twice a week I like to serve meatless meals to my family. There are a lot of recipes and smoothies that you can incorporate with this cruciferous greens. It is one of the most healthiest vegetable. It is an anti-oxidant , anti-inflammatory , excellent source of vitamins A, C, and K -- and sulphur-containing phytonutrients.

 Kale is also rich in the eye-health promoting lutein and zeaxanthin compounds.
.






Ingredients:

a bunch of Kale
3 garlic cloves
a package of whole wheat thin spaghetti
1/2 cup to 1 cup of Parmesan Cheese
3 tbsp Country Crock butter
1 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste


Directions:

Wash Kale thoroughly.  Remove the thick branches, Chop the leaves finely ( thin strips) ,


 Meanwhile , cook you pasta according to package instructions.



Heat a large pot. Melt the butter and add in the olive oil. Saute the minced garlic. Be careful not to burn it. 


Add the kale leaves , and cook it for about 5 minutes. Once it turned into dark , deep green..it should be done. Turn your stove off.


Mix your cooked spaghetti noodles with the sauteed kale. Mix it nicely and add in Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top as well.

It just doesn't look pretty..It is delicious and healthy :)



You may serve the Kale Pasta with rolled grilled cheese..

Here's how..so easy!
