Raw thinly sliced black kale-alsoknown as Tuscan or lacinato kale-isan amazingly delicious alternative to everyday salad greens.

Add the cavolo nero and fry for a couple of minutes, until wilted.

Meanwhile, cook the rice according to packet instructions and wash the sliced cavolo nero.

Next, mix in the cavolo nero and tomatoes, then cover the pan and cook for 15 minutes, until the leaves are soft.

Cavolo nero or perhaps some savoy cabbage, cooked briefly then served without butter or oil, is my preference.

If you can't find black kale, use chard, Napa cabbage, mustard greens, or romaine lettuce.
