are you ready for this?
A friend and mom of one of my son’s teammates sent me a recipe for kale pesto.. Oh! The possibilities! But this… This is easy.. Maybe a little messy.. I try to cook with as few dishes as possible and this requires more than the average, but it’s worth it.
What you need:
Lasagna- regular or gluten free- I get the ready to bake regular and some gluten free penne pasta or elbows for me. I just haven’t had great luck with the gluten free lasagna
Kale- 2 bunches
Garlic – 3 cloves or to taste
Salt, pepper, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, rosemary
2 c walnuts
Olive oil
Parmesan cheese
Mozzarella cheese
Ricotta cheese
1 egg
Let’s go!
Take your kale and cut the stems off at the end and discard. Dunk into boiling water with 1 tsp salt and the garlic for 2-3 mins
Put into colander but reserve water
Process nuts, salt, red pepper, Parmesan, rosemary & nutmeg and then add kale, 2 T olive oil and reserved water to desired thickness. Purée until beautiful
go ahead! taste it!
Mix ricotta with egg and a little more nutmeg (dash)
Pour some reserved water in bottom of dish
Layer lasagna or gluten free pasta, ricotta, pesto and mozzarella, repeat!
layer it up like a 5 layer cake
make it vegan & layer nuts and vegan cheese!
the gluten free bowl of delicious
Cook at 350 for 45 minutes and then enjoy!!!
thats right! its all yours!
