Today I'm sharing with you this easy to make kale and pasta recipe.
I enjoy cooking pasta when I run out of ideas for what to make for dinner. I usually have the pasta and kale on hand, and you can find me making this dish about once a week.
I hope you enjoy this healthy pasta dish as much as my family does!! :)
In the first photo below you can see the kale sauteing in the pot.
In the second photo you can see the kale and pasta all mixed together and done cooking.
This is such an easy, healthy, and delicious meal to make for dinner and I'm sure everyone will just love it! :)

This is right up my alley! Simple and healthy! I don't cook with kale so I need to try this!

ReplyDeleteHealthy and tasty dish. Thanks for sharing the recipe :)
ReplyDeleteMy mouth is watering right now, Julie! Yum...
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I haven't been a huge fan of kale. But this looks really good - I'll have to try it!

(enjoy the weekend. Looks like we dodged Matthew).
Kale is a favorite at my home too, and I love adding it to soups, stews and pasta. Your recipe looks delish! :)
ReplyDeleteYum! We don't get kale here so I'll make this broccoli like Celestina Marie did. For sure this would make an easy weekday meal. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Will let yo know how it turns out:)
ReplyDeleteLooks good, but unfortunately I cannot eat Kale since I am on blood thinners.
ReplyDeleteHope all is fine with you and you are enjoying Fall. We are having 90 degree weather here. Sure wish it would cool off.
Have a wonderful week Julie,
Hugs,

I have to start buying some Kale! I haven't cooked with it much. I have been on an arugula kick lately :-) Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI need to try this Julie! I just picked a bunch of Kale in the garden today. Hubby isn't a big fan of it, but maybe in pasta he will like it. :) Thanks for sharing with SYC.
