Our local fruit and vegetable store had the most glorious purple kale on sale this week. So I just had to use it.
To make this dish, remove the leaves of 1 bunch of purple kale from the tough (inedible) stalks. Wash the leaves and then steam them in a steaming basket for 6-8 minutes. I like my kale to be tender but if you prefer a little crunch just shorten their time in the steamer.
Half way through steaming, drizzle about 1 tsp. of lemon oil onto the leaves. Once your leaves are tender, transfer them onto your serving dish and top with 2 tbsp. of dried cranberries and 2 tbsp. of toasted pine nuts.
Who ate it?
Husband- Yes!
Son #1 and #2- They ate the cranberries and the pine nuts. No kale though. It looks as if I’ll have to keep hiding it in potato cakes.

This sounds so flavourful.
It was good and so good for us too.
This sounds delicious. I pulled in a huge haul of chard yesterday and this sounds like a good way to get it past the gates over there. Thanks so much!
Amazing!
