Very tasty even without the parmesan! I cut back the amount of butter which I think helped but will definitely cook this again.

This is such a great sidedish with just about anything! Make it just like the directions...no tweaking was needed for me.

I really enjoyed this. My husband and kids weren't thrilled with it but I'm not really counting their opinion on this one. I did use almonds instead of pine nuts.

This was my first time cooking kale and this recipe was simple and let the kale shine. I did use about half the butter called for in the recipe and omitted the parmesan (because we were also having macaroni and cheese). Although my 7 year-old said it was "chewy," she liked it.
