Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 tablespoons sunflower seeds

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 large yellow onion -- thinly sliced

3 cloves garlic -- minced

1 1/2 large bunch kale -- (12 ounces),

- stems removed and coarsely chopped

1 cup vegetable broth

2 cups edamame -- cooked and shelled

salt

hot red pepper flakes

1 pound pasta

4 tablespoons Pecorino Romano cheese -- grated

black pepper

 

Often thought of only as a garnish, nutrient-rich kale pairs up with

edamame in this flavorful pasta dish.

 

Serves 4. 

 

In a 350-degree oven, toast sunflower seeds on cookie sheet 10 minutes

or until lightly browned (watch closely).  Set aside.

 

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook,

stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and kale; continue

cooking until kale wilts, about 2 minutes. Stir in broth, edamame, and

salt and red pepper flakes to taste. Simmer, covered, until kale is

tender, about 3 minutes. 

 

Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling water. Cook al dente

according to package directions. Drain well. Toss pasta with edamame

mixture. Sprinkle with cheese, pine nuts and black pepper.
