Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Onions, Chopped
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, Minced or Pressed
  • 1 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
  • 4 Cups Kale, Sliced
  • 2 Cups Pineapple, Canned Crushed and Undrained
  • 1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
  • 1 Tbsp. Tabasco or Hot Pepper Sauce
  • 1/2 Cup Cilantro, Chopped
  • Taste of Salt

Directions

1

In a covered saucepan, saute the onions and garlic in the oil for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are lightly browned.

2

While the onions saute, wash the kale.

3

Remove the stems.

4

Stack the leaves on a cutting surface and slice crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices.

5

Add the pineapple and its juice to the onions and bring to a simmer.

6

Stir in the kale, cover, and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring a couple of times, until just tender.

7

Mix in the peanut butter, hot pepper sauce, and simmer for 5 minutes.

8

Add salt to taste.

9

You can use spinach instead of the kale but you may wish to use more as the spinach shrivels up considerably more than the kale does.
