My local Sprouts Grocery had great big bags of Green Beans and bags of kale for only 98cents so I picked up a bag of each. After I trimmed the green beans I put them in salted boiling water for three minutes. Then the green beans went in an ice bath. I tried one. It came out so perfect and so sweet that I didn’t feel the need to sauté them. SO…..I fried some capers and the kale. Serving size can differ. I don’t know if you want a small side or a bowl full. I’ll guesstimate around 8 servings.

Ingredients for around 8 servings

2 lbs. green beans – trimmed and boiled in salted water for three minutes and then optional ice bath (you do the ice bath if you want the vegetable to stay green but it gets cold.

12 oz. kale – chopped

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1-small bottle capers (mine was 3 oz.) – drained and pat dry

1/2 lemon – just the fresh juice

sea salt to taste

ground black pepper – to taste

Directions

On medium high heat add the oil to a medium sauce pan. fry the capers till some of them open (3-4 minutes) Remove the capers and add them to the green beans. Fry up the kale. Add some salt and pepper. Fry the kale till it’s wilted and add it to the green beans. Finish with lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Enjoy!!!
