Creamy Kale with Red Peppers

4 Servings


24 ounces fresh kale
1 cup diced red bell peppers
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons margarine
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup skim milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Rinse kale thoroughly to remove sand and grit. Tear leaves into small pieces and discard stalks. Place leaves
and red pepper in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add water, reduce heat and cover. Cook 7 to 8 minutes,
or until leaves are wilted. Transfer kale and peppers to a place and set aside. Melt margarine in a large saucepan. Add flour and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Whisk in milk, salt and pepper. Cook until mixture boils, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add kale, peppers and sugar. Mix well and serve hot.
