KALE WITH MIRACULOUS WALNUT SAUCE

another featured recipe from Forks Over Knives
great book:  buy it!!!
Prepare the kale:
Clean 1 bunch of kale, remove the ribs, cut into bite size pieces. 
Boil about 1 1/2 inches of water in a large frying pan and spread out the kale greens in the pan.  Cover and cook 5 minutes, test to see if it is cooked to your liking.  Don't overcook it.
Remove from the heat, drain, and serve with the walnut sauce on the side.

1 to 2 tbsp low-sodium tamari
1/2 cup water or more depending on preference for thick or thin
1/2 cup walnuts
1 garlic clove

Put in a blender or food processor the walnuts, garlic and tamari.  Blend and add as much water as necessary (about 1/2 cup) to make it the right consistency to pour over the kale.
Thin is OK and it will go a long way.
I love the kale and sauce served with brown rice.

mix all

the light colored walnut sauce looks great served on the deep green kale

I just made this and it is yummy, very garlicy thought use sparingly if you don't love garlic. I used one large clove of garlic, next time I will cut the clove in half if it is large. enjoy!!!
