Super quick/easy with premade pizza crust. Used Alfredo instead of tomato sauce. Cooked kale and chard in butter and added pine nuts.
0 HelpfulWe actually used a pizza dough since I had one in the fridge and we added jalapeño slices, mushrooms and used sliced green olives. Yum! Also did a green side salad. I'll have to focus more on the kale salad next time.
0 HelpfulI just made the salad this time to go with some rotisserie chicken tacos. The flavor of the dressing for the kale is magical and the recipe was so easy! My new go to salad
0 HelpfulThis rating is for the Kale Salad only. I was shocked by how much we enjoyed this side dish. I checked the recipe 5 or 6 times to make sure that I wasn't supposed to cook the kale, but you don't, and it was fine. I wasn't even able to get dino or lacinato as suggested, but ordinary kale worked fine. I didn't have any yogurt so I substituted sour cream. I did use a dash of tobasco. I was surprised and delighted with this little salad.
0 HelpfulThe pizza definitely lived up to its purpose, Stupidly easy, and I can see how kids would be so pleased with themselves making it, perhaps not enjoying olives and artichoke hearts so much. But otherwise I think my husband makes much better pizza. The dressing and kale salad I'm very glad to know, as I don't think I would have stumbled upon that on my own.
