Had this as a side dish yesterday... so easy, healthy and tastes great. First taste my husband said it's a keeper. Since used only half of the bunch for the two of us, we are having again with dinner tonight!

This recipe is a gem, absolutely spectacular. I've also tried it with chopped walnuts & I think I'll alternate the two since I liked them both so much. I didn't use any butter, it wasn't necessary. I used water instead of chicken broth & a half teaspoon of salt to replace the bouillon. It was excellent, people! Tasted naughty, but was perfectly healthy.

this was very good. i used home made chicken broth and added a pinch of red pepper flakes for some kick. next time i will skip the bouillon because i think it was a bit too salty for us. also, i would toast the almonds separately and add them last to keep them crunchy and caramelize the onions for about 10 minutes before adding the garlic and continuing on... i like my onions very brown. but, still the recipe is a great way to add leafy greens to your menu!
