Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bunch kale, stemmed and cut into pieces (about 6 cups)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 leek, white part only, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or to taste)
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans
1 teaspoon salt
additional salt

Steps:

  • If you are serving over pasta cook according to package but reserve 2 cups of the pasta water.
  • Saute garlic and leeks in olive oil over medium heat. Add red pepper flakes and salt. Be careful not to brown the garlic; it will be bitter if you do.
  • Add kale and the drained and rinsed beans. Add reserved pasta water a bit at a time, just enough to have enough liquid for the kale to wilt and become tender. Be sure to taste the kale and bean mixture. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Add drained cooked pasta directly to the bean and kale mixture. Add additional pasta water if the mixture is dry, and add more olive oil if desired.

KALE WITH CANNELLINI BEANS



Kale With Cannellini Beans image

I found this recipe in Deborah Madison's book Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone. I used it as part of a meal that i was creating that needed to contain 45 or fewer carbs. My guests, one of whom who does not like kale, loved the mixture of the beans and the kale and really enjoyed this dish. Next time, I might make some croutons to sprinkle on top of it as well to give it a bit of crunch.
