Kale Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray rectangle baking dish with nonstick spray. Melt butter and add onions to a saucepan, cook until translucent. Add kale in batches and cook until wilted. Sift flour over kale mixture. Cook 2-3 minutes then add half and half, 1 cup parmesan, and cream cheese. In another bowl combine 1 cup parmesan, panko, and spices.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until just browned and soft, about 5 minutes.

Add the broth and continue to cook until the kale is wilted and most of the broth is absorbed, about 5 minutes more. Add the squash, zucchini and 1/2 teaspoon salt and toss to combine with the kale. Continue cooking until the squash begins to soften, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the mayonnaise.
