This is a great recipe. I've been wanting to try Kale as a side dish and I'm so glad that I picked this one. I didn't have shallots so used red onion but other than that I made as directed. A lot like spinach but with a lot milder flavor that we enjoyed so much more. The bacon is wonderful in this. I added a little fresh lemon juice to mine but DH liked as is. This only served the two of us. I feel sorry for the other two that didn't get any. I'll made this again for sure. Thanks for sharing. Made for New Kids tag game.
