North German Gruenkohl (Kale) and Sausage

A north German specialty, Gruenkohl (kale) and sausage was something with which my mother-in-law warmed our hearts and tummies in the winter. The north Germans serve this with boiled potatoes.

Step: 1

Bring a pot of water to a boil, and stir in the kale; boil for 1 minute, and remove from the water with a slotted spoon. Set the blanched kale aside.

Step: 2

Place bacon into a large skillet over medium heat, and cook until browned, stirring frequently, about 8 minutes. Stir in the onion, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the blanched kale, and cook until kale is bright green and starting to turn tender, about 4 minutes. Pour in enough water to cover, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, and stir in the beef bouillon granules and nutmeg. Simmer the kale until tender, about 30 minutes.

Step: 3

Stir the mustard into the kale, and lay the ham slices and sausage links on top. Simmer the kale, ham, and sausages until the sausages are cooked through, about 35 more minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper before serving.

It means , if we always order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, necessary we really will the junk food and should have just pleased it in the first place."

Because it comes to dinner , much eat or eating too much of the bad item of food will make lead to bad habit on sleeping. On the other side, a meal that is less than satiating not make leave you wanting more and resulting in reaching for an unhealthy late-night side dish even closer to bedtime .
