I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tilapia didn't come out flaky. It was still tasty, but it wasn't what I was hoping for.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover kale. I had some kale that was starting to wilt and this recipe was the perfect way to use it up.

The spicy kale was too spicy for my taste. I think I will use less cayenne pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tilapia came out dry. I think I will try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.
