Sun Dried Tomato Kale Pasta

April 30, 2019 by Jasmin Foster

Leave the salad alone and take your kale up a notch with Nature’s Greens by adding kale to yourpasta for dinner.

Jump to Recipe

Sometimes we just need a break from salads. When I say salads I mean with kale.  It’s that popular super food everyone knows (and love) and it’s for good reason. It’s nutrient dense and good for you…full of antioxidants, Vitamin K , Vitamin C, and Potassium.

Another pretty popular way to eat kale is sautéed as a side dish. That may work for you but if you catch my drift I am not looking for anything usual. This go round I’m using kale to make Sun Dried Tomato Kale Pasta w. A flavorful one bowl meal that takes less than 30 minutes to make.

If I had to describe, I would say this Sun Dried Tomato Kale Pasta is light but filling with a bit of spice thanks to the red pepper flakes. If you can handle the heat then double that amount of red pepper flakes (if you dare).

What I love about Nature’s Greens is that you have a whole 2 pound bag that’s enough to feed a large family or meal prep with. Theres plenty kale to make whatever you want, including that salad and side dish. Be sure to store your leftover kale in an airtight container with a paper towel or invest in eco friendly ways to save food like with beeswax wraps!

How to make Sun Dried Tomato Kale Pasta with Chicken Sausage

Start by making your pasta first. Cook linguine pasta according to package instructions.

While linguine cooks. Heat pan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Then add garlic. Sautee for 30 seconds. 

Add Nature’s Greens Kale Greens, sun dried tomatoes, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes (while stirring frequently) or until kale starts to wilt. 

Once linguine is finished, reserve ½ cup of water. Take your pasta and drain. Add pasta to the kale and mix thoroughly. Add reserved water if needed.

Use additional topping like parmesan cheese, or chopped parsley.
