Coconut Kale Noodles

These coconut kale noodles are one of my favorite quick and easy weeknight dinner recipes. All you need is coconut oil, coconut aminos, fresh kale, and noodles (I’m using Trader Joe’s Squiggly noodles). I like to top mine with crispy chili oil and sesame seeds but that’s optional.

Instructions
 

  • Get a pot of water boiling for the noodles.
  • Meanwhile, add coconut oil, kale, and a pinch of salt to a separate fry pan over medium heat. Cook the kale for 2 minutes or until it turns bright green.
  • Turn the heat down to medium-low and drop the noodles into the other pot of boiling water.
  • Once the noodles are tender, remove them from the water and add them on top of the kale - allowing excess water to go along with them. Then add the coconut aminos and toss everything together over medium-low heat.
  • Cook for 1-2 minutes more until the noodles absorb the sauce.
  • When it’s time to plate them, I like adding a scoop of crispy chili oil and some toasted sesame seeds for crunch but this is totally optional.
