Sauteed kale with garlic and lemon is one of the easiest side dishes you'll ever cook.  Garlic is heated in a skillet with olive oil before the kale is added.  A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end adds acidity and flavor to this leafy green vegetables.  This recipe works great as a base for many sauteed kale dishes.  Feel free to add stewed tomatoes, white beans, mushrooms, onions and any other ingredients that inspire you.
