This was amazing. I bought some kale produced locally and decided to make this. I did blanch the kale and found it easy to do. I just used my metal colander and put the colander in the kale in the hot water and then pulled out the colander and cooled it. Feta cheese was a nice foil for this vegetable but really all of the flavors together were wonderful. A definite do over for this healthy veggie.

I'm giving it 4 stars rather then 3 because I think I made some adjustments I shouldn't have. I had made a kale recipe previously and scorched it because it didn't have enough liquid, so I added more (too much). I also added some red beans like another reviewer suggested for the protein. Next time I will just make hopping john on the side. Love the nutrition and flavor of kale, This is a keeper, thanks.

I, like a few other reviewers, skipped the initial boil and blanch, because we like crunchy veggies. I otherwise made it as is, except to add a little less broth, and I added in some red beans for protein, served it over rice for a complete, healthy vegetarian meal. Thanks for suggesting!
