Julia Turshen’s White Pizza-Style Kale: Recipe from the God’s Love Holiday Catalog
This is one of my absolute favorite recipes from my latest cookbook, Simply Julia. It’s a skillet of garlicky greens topped with ricotta and mozzarella, broiled until the cheese melts and browns. Then you sprinkle the top with all of my favorite pizza seasonings. You can use a pound of frozen kale instead of fresh kale if you’d like. Just defrost it before using and skip the water! I am sharing it because I think it’s the epitome of healthy comfort food—which is my favorite type of food to cook—something I have in common with God’s Love We Deliver. Serve with just about anything.

2 tbsps extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb. kale (preferably lacinato), stemmed and coarsely chopped
