My neighbour Greg grows organic produce in his urban garden. I really impressed by the result, he is such a talented grower, and use only compost he produce in his garden. He shared with me his Cavolo Nero last week. A big bunch of juicy and tender leafy vegetables. I added some to my green smoothie, the fiber rich green smoothies is my fave treats during this spring. The remaining leaves will be served sauteed for lunch.
Enjoy this simple and delicious Cavolo Nero sautéed with chorizo and smoked paprika oil and served with a saucy sunny side up egg. Don’t forget to add sourdough toast.
It also can be served without the toast, as keto or low-carb dish.
If you didn’t find the Cavolo Nero, spinach or kale leaves will work great in this recipe as well.
