Easy dinner idea: Vegan Kale Pasta

Hello everyone, I would like to thank you for reading my posts and following my blog. Please feel free to comment and share with your friends and family.


Few weeks ago , we were invited to my cousin's house for an adult dinner. Well her little one did wake up but we still considered it adult dinner LOL since we were drinking red wine ;)
Before going to dinner ;)


Since my cousin knows I eat plantbased, she made a dish for moi ;) Well everyone ate from it too, so I guess it was for everyone too :) It was DELICIOUS so I asked her for the recipe and I made it for us, I tweaked a little bit ofcourse.
I would like to add, I recently started enjoying cooking. I am not the type of person who just creates recipes from scracth ! I always look up recipes, add something, omit or replace etc... So I make the recipe which is widely used, let's say, my own. I have made several Lebanese dishes I grew up eating without meat, or added something different.
Busy moms don't have time to re-create the wheel! The recipes are out there, remake them using the healthiest, cleanest ingredients.
Enough talking !! Let's get to business ;)




Ingredients:


2 bunches kale (washed and chopped)
1 tbsp. Olive oil
1-basket cherry tomatoes or regular tomatoes chopped ( which I used)
1 1/2 head garlic minced
Vegetable broth or water
Pasta of choice





Method:

Cook pasta according to package and set aside,

1. Sauté garlic in olive oil
2: Add tomatoes( sauté until tender)
3: Season with salt/pepper. I also used thyme, oregano and sage.
4: Add kale then  about a cup of vegetable broth or water
5: Lower heat and let simmer until  kale is tender and broth/water reduces
6: Toss pasta with kale or just serve over it like I did !
In the making ! 


I would like to thank my cousin Aimee for this recipe :) I am not sure if she created it or followed. She used cherry tomatoes and as you can see I used regular tomatoes. She added salt and pepper and I used more spices.   I love using spices...Spices and dried herbs are great for digestion and make the food taste EPIC ;)
Enjoy !!

Final product! 


Thank you so much for reading my post, please feel free to comment and share with your friends and family.
