Kale and Brussel Sprouts with Irish Aged White Cheddar

Continuing with my brussel sprout / kale combinations. I liked this one better than yesterday's. I think the addition of the small amount of pomegranate juice helped. Plus the cheese.

Saute
2 tsp olive oil
3 brussel sprouts, halved and cut up

Add, continue saute
1/4 c onion, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, minced

Microwave, per instructions on box
2 strips of fake bacon (Morningstar)

Add to the sprouts, cover and wilt as desired
1 cup kale, ripped to bite size pieces
3 tsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp pomegranate juice (by Pom)

Add, soften, mix up
2 slices of Irish Aged White Cheddar cheese (about 1.5 oz)

Serve with
Crumbled fake bacon
1.5 oz greek non-fat yogurt

Rated a 4.45 on the Kale Scale
