Equipment

  • Large Skillet or Wok
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Wooden Spoon or Spatula
  • Serving Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups roughly chopped kale lightly packed
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 4 cups roughly chopped green cabbage
  • 2 tablespoons butter or avocado oil for paleo
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos for paleo
  • 1-2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 6 tablespoons water

Instructions
 

  • Start by washing and chopping your vegetables. Roughly chop the kale, broccoli, and green cabbage into bite-sized pieces.
  • In a large skillet or wok, melt the butter over medium heat. If using avocado oil, heat until it shimmers slightly.
  • Add the minced garlic and ground ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
  • Add the chopped kale, broccoli florets, and green cabbage to the skillet. Stir well to combine and coat the vegetables.
  • Pour the gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos over the vegetables. Add crushed red pepper to your spice preference. Stir to combine.
  • Add the water to the skillet, cover with a lid, and let the vegetables steam for about 5-7 minutes until tender but vibrant.
  • Remove the lid, give everything a final stir, adjust seasoning if needed, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use avocado oil and coconut aminos to make this recipe paleo-friendly.
  • Avoid overcooking to keep vegetables tender-crisp and colorful.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently with a splash of water to keep veggies moist.
