This recipe reminds me of my mom. She would make me kale with garlic, vinegar and olive oil every night when I repeatedly requested it as a child.

This is a super simple recipe for Tender Kale with Marinated Kumquats. You can even micro-steam the kale which makes this a 5 minute recipe!...oh and Kumquats and Kale are both super duper healthy. Keep reading for yum! photos and the recipe...

1 large bunch fresh raw kale
5-6 kumquats
3 tablespoon lemon juice
