Vegan Bacon EVOO and Plum Basil Wilted Greens

I have the best recipe to share, and guess what,,,,my eight year old daughter went completely Ga-Ga over this! What a great way to introduce to the pickiest eaters just how delicious greens can be. The Plum basil vinegar add a particular sweetness to the bold green flavors of the coniferous vegetables. Just a note, you can add whatever selection of greens you would like, I would highly recommend Kale, collard greens, spinach, and shaved Brussel sprouts.

Ingredients:

5 -6 cups of greens
3-4 Tablespoons Vegan Bacon EVOO
1/4 onion, diced
1/4 cup Plum Basil
1/2 cup chicken broth ( poured slowly over cooking time)
salt and pepper to taste


Directions

Place large saute pan over medium high heat. Add oil. Add greens. saute incorporating the greens with the oil for about 2 minutes. Add onion. Saute for another 2 minutes. Add plum basil vinegar and about 1/4 cup chicken broth. cover and let boil for about 30 minutes, add more broth if needed. ( I had to keep adding the chicken broth over the greens, the kale takes awhile to cook 30 minutes is a good amount of time, however I have to admit sometimes I cook it for about 40 minutes! But it is so good.) add a little salt and pepper to taste and more Plum basil if needed. Enjoy!
