Start with a healthy green like kale to be the cornerstone to a tasty meal of Braised Kale, Sausage, and Creamy Polenta. Luscious mascarpone cheese makes the polenta super creamy-and has fewer calories than butter! Ingredients:
cooking spray |
3 fully cooked chicken sausages, cut into chunks |
1 cup quick-cooking polenta |
2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese |
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
kosher salt |
4 cups braised kale without cheese |
Directions:
1. Coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Cook sausages over medium heat until browned (about 10 minutes).
2. Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add polenta. Cook on low, stirring, until thick (about 5 minutes). Stir in cheese, paprika, and pepper. Season with salt.
3. Add the kale to the sausage. Cook until hot (2-3 minutes). Serve over the creamy polenta.
