Hi there. I\u2019m Letty from Letty\u2019s Kitchen<\/a>, the blog about seasonal vegetarian cooking and desserts with a healthier twist. I delighted to share this pressure cooker kale recipe with you. It\u2019s one of my favorites! Kale is delicious on its own, but it adds great flavor and health benefits to all sorts of dishes. I want to try Barb’s recipe for\u00a0Pressure Cooker Chorizo, Chicken and Kale Soup<\/a> soon!<\/p>\n

How to make Kale in an Instant Pot<\/h2>\n

An Instant Pot is one of the most popular brands of electric pressure cookers. They are easy to use and your Instant Pot can help you create this delicious and healthy kale recipe!<\/p>\n

In a pressure cooker, you cook kale for two minutes, that\u2019s all. With shorter cooking time, in very little water, more vitamins stay in the kale. For this recipe, choose the dark, almost blue-black Italian Lacinato kale, the one with flatter bumpy leaves.<\/p>\n

As the dark color indicates, Lacinato kale comes with plenty of nutritious phytonutrients. Kale has more calcium than a glass of milk, and more Vitamin C than an orange.<\/p>\n

Sweet paprika\u2019s mild peppery flavor works wonders with kale. Also, a little sprinkle of acid, like vinegar or lemon juice, magically bumps up the flavor in all greens\u2014but I think mellow sweet sherry vinegar\u2019s caramel nut complexity complements Lacinato kale the best.<\/p>\n

With at least 10 grams of protein per serving, tender savory baked tofu is a great addition to this kale and leek dish. Scatter crunchy almonds on top, serve over quinoa, and you\u2019ve got yourself a nutritious vegetarian meal.<\/p>\n
