Kale, Lentils and Linguine


Ingredients:

bunch of kale, leaves torn from stems & washed
1 small red onion (optional)
2 garlic cloves
1/2 cup lentils, cooked to just firm – not too soft as they will be mushy (I used french lentils)
1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
linguine, cooked as per package (or any type of pasta)

Directions:

In a large fry pan, pour olive oil and let warm over medium heat.

Once oil is hot, add in red onion and garlic, stirring so the garlic doesn’t burn.

When onions have softened, roughly 3-4 mins, add the kale, some water, salt and red chili flakes (optional).Cover the pan, stirring occasionally for approx 10 mins.

Once the kale is a dark green in colour, and has softened, it is finished.

Place the linguine in bowls and add the kale on top.

Garnish with parmesan or your favourite cheese if you’d like. Enjoy!
