This Thanksgiving we were blessed to share some of our favorite recipes with family and friends. One of the items on the list was our Spicy Kale and Artichokes tossed with our special sauce made from scratch. This simple dish is easy to make, healthy and very tasty. We are huge fans of kale and enjoy experimenting with different ways to prepare the yummy vegetable. Serving kale as a substitute for other greens – particularly during the holidays, is a great way to change things up. If you’re looking for a way to add green vegetables to your next family gathering that’s quick, but packs a flavorful punch, then this recipe will do the trick.
