I mostly eat Kale in raw form in a salad, but I might have left it in the fridge a tad too long and it lost some of it's crispiness, so I thought I would cook it up. Since I didn't leave it to cook to long, it still have some texture to it, because I HATE soggy greens!

Ingredients

Bundle of kale. I get mine organic from The Organic Box.
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
pinch of chili flakes
salt and pepper
Parmesan Cheese (optional)

Preparations

Heat the oil in a pan on medium.
Rough chop the kale, leaving the stems in. Leaving the stems in will add more crunchiness if you like more texture like me.
Toss the kale and garlic into pan and mix around to get well coated with the olive oil. I may have also added a touch more oil then the 2 tbsp listed above.
Cook until warm but still slightly crunchy. Each type of kale will take a different amount of time, also depending on the texture you like. Here I have dinosaur kale (also known as black kale).
The last minute of cooking add the chili pepper flakes. Of course adding to the heat you like. Remember with chili flakes a little can go a long way!
Add salt and pepper to tasting and remove from the pan.
Top with Parmesan cheese and serve and eat right away.
