Creamy kale bowl

I love making hummus, but after a couple days of cucumber-hummus lunches, it starts to lose its appeal. I’ve started mixing my leftovers up with some sautéed kale with cashews for a crunchy-creamy and satisfying meal that includes your necessary protein, phytonutrients, and healthy fats.

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup raw cashews, roughly chopped
• Olive oil
• Garlic
• Kale
• Hummus

Directions

1. In a large sauté pan, toast the cashews over medium heat until lightly browned and fragrant. Remove from pan and transfer to a bowl.
2. Return the pan to the stove and add about 3 tablespoons olive oil. (You’ll need more than you would for, say, sautéing spinach as the kale will soak it all up.)
3. Add kale and garlic and sauté for a few minutes until the kale begins to wilt and turns crispy around the edges.
4. Add kale to the bowl with the cashews and top with a couple spoonfuls of hummus. Mash it all up for good measure and you have a surprisingly satisfying meal.
