    this was the best dish of greens i've had in a long time. It was fast and easy. It reminded me of my mom's pasta fagiole. THANK YOU!

    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.

    Great recipe! Try it with a little parmesan cheese grated on it. My kids loved it!

    This is such a great side dish with ham or fried chicken. A nice change from plain greens.

    This is such an easy recipe and it's so tasty! Not to mention the health benefits. Kale is great for you. My husband added a some hot sauce for a little kick. We will definitely make this again.

    I have fixed this too many times to count. One of our favorite ways to cook kale. Sweet and delicious with a little spice.

    this recipe is so delicious, you have to try it! i saw it on the show a while back and decided to try it even though i have never had kale before.i bought a HUGE bunch of kale, and used the whole thing based on some of the other reviews. the only thing i had to do differently was cook it longer (about 1 hour and add the whole can of chicken broth throughout the cooking process. i could not believe how sweet and tasty it turned out! even my "i don't eat greens" husband loved it, and even ate the leftovers the next day. awesome dish, and well worth trying! i will defintely make this again, especially for company i want to impress!

    This is a delicious, healthy recipe that I make often. It is so simple, and leftovers are good hot or cold. I usually add a lot more kale than two cups (a large bunch or a 16 ounce prewashed package, and increase the chicken stock. Thank you, Neelys!

    This was absolutely delicious!!!! You do need a lot of greens, which I only had one bunch of Kale....so next time I will use two big bunches. Even my boyfriend thought it was great. I sauteed about 4 oz of pancetta before adding the onions and garlic and added a splash of balsamic vinegar at the end for sweetness. I served this with Manicotta and it stole the show. No leftovers. Will definitely make this again.
