Saucy Kale

I had some of the sauce leftover from yesterday's Squash It entry which formed the starting point for tonight's meal. Sautéing the veggies in the sauce and then the kale - umMm good!

Saute
3 tsp coconut oil (this is solid at first)
1/2 cup onion, diced
1/2 tsp garlic, raw, diced

Add and continue sautéing
10 grape tomatoes, halved
4 slices of lean Canadian bacon, cup up

Steam 2 minutes
1+ cup Kale

While kale steams, add and simmer sauce made from (about 2+ Tbsp total)
- Hoisin sauce
- wine
- balsamic vinegar
- soy sauce lite

I was going to put the ham and tomato mix on the kale, but instead I added the kale to the sauté pan and mixed it all up.

Serve with parmesan cheese (about 1 Tbsp)

Rated a 4.69 on the Kale Scale.

Squash It

I bought a squash - looked like an acorn, but it was all yellow. The label said Swan Winter Acorn and as I google, I find it is also called White Swan Acorn Squash. The link goes to a web page with a picture of what my squash looked like.

So thinking I'd go simple tonight.

Cook the squash in microwave, scoop out the seeds and then scoop out the flesh.


Steam 1+ cup of kale (ripped up).

Put the squash on top of the kale and served with a little sauce.

Mix to your desire and pour over the squash/kale:
- Hoisin sauce
- wine
- balsamic vinegar
- soy sauce lite

When all was done, I used about 2 tbsp. of this sauce mix.

Top it all with 1 Tbsp of Parmesan cheese.

Rated a 4.5 on the Kale Scale.
