This was really good. I wasn't sure about the combination of beans and greens, but was looking for something new to do with the red kale I bought, and trust the Neelys. Well, I was VERY happy with the way this recipe came out. I used more kale than the 2 cups called for - 2 bunches of kale, so at least 4 cups. Used a can of great northern beans as that's what I could get. Left out the red pepper flakes as the people I made it for don't like spicy; but will add it next time I make it. Also cooked the kale until completely tender - almost as tender as spinach, which took closer to 20-30 min. Even the non kale lover in our group ate it! The mild taste of the beans and the sauteed, thinly sliced onions are the perfect foil for any bitterness in the kale. (Personally, I steer clear of lacinato or packaged kale - really like red, especially, or else green, leafy kale.
