Easy Breezy Kale Salad

  • 16 oz bag of kale or free bundled kale

  • 1 Tbsp of olive oil

  • 2 Bay Leaf

  • 1 Tbsp of Badia Complete Seasoning

  • 1 small onion

  • 1 cup of water

  • ½ cup of sundried tomatoes (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a large pot add 1 Tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and bay leaf and allow the onion to brown.

  2. Add 1 Tbsp of Badia - mix and sautéed for 1 min.

  3. Add 1 cup of water and bring to a boil.

  4. Pile as much kale as possible in the pot. (I’m usually using the pre-washed and bagged kale)

  5. Add sundried tomatoes, mix to make sure onions and seasoning on the bottoms are intertwined, cover and bring to low temperature to sautée for about 10 mins. *Keep your eyes on the kale to ensure you’re not over cooking - turning olive is a no-no.
