Simple Spagetti with Kale and Lentils
  • Serves 2
Author Notes

I made this the other day when I didn't have much time but wanted something delicious and healthy. It can really be made with any type of pasta and any leafy vegetable. The lentils add the protein for a complete one dish meal. I loaded up with more kale and lentils than pasta, but you could make it with any proportions you want. —bexwithanx6
