    ChefMD's Cancer-Preventing Vegan Side Dish: Garlicky Sauteed Kale

    Here's something from my favorite ChefMD, an easy to prepare vegan side dish that prevents cancer: Garlicky Sauteed Kale.

    Ingredients:

    1 bunch kale leaves (¾ to 1 pound), preferably organic
    1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
    1 medium sweet or yellow onion, chopped
    1 tablespoon ChefMD seasonings*
    4 cloves garlic, minced
    2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
    1 tablespoon sunflower seeds or sesame seeds

    Directions:

    Wash kale by swishing in a sink of cold water. Shake off excess water. (No need to dry the kale.) Trim off and discard ends of tough stems. Separate stems from leaves by holding leaves in one hand and pulling up on stem. Finely chop the stems and coarsely chop the leaves. Heat oil in a sauté pan or large deep skillet over medium heat. Add onion; sauté 2 minutes. Add ChefMD seasonings; sauté 2 minutes. Add chopped kale stems and leaves; cover and cook 5 minutes. Uncover; sauté 5 to 10 minutes or until kale is tender and most of liquid is evaporated. Stir in garlic and hoisin sauce; sauté 1 minute. Top with sunflower seeds.

    (*If ChefMD seasonings are not available, substitute 1 teaspoon each: sesame seeds, dried oregano and dried marjoram.)
