Easy Recipe for Green Leafy Vegetables

One pot wonder for green leafy vegetables.  You can use Kale but I prefer Chard.

Ingredients:

3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 medium onion chopped
1 head of green leafy vegetable chopped
1 regular can of chopped tomatoes (nothing fancy, prefer Hunts)
1 regular can of beans rinsed (garbanzo, pinto, navy - beans without a lot of flavor)

Method:

Use a large skillet or a wok.
Cook garlic for about a minute on med high
Add onion and cook until translucent.  About 3-5 minutes.
Add meat (if you choose to - a few ounces of sausage, ground beef, ground turkey - not necessary, hence I left it out of the ingredients)
Add the green leafy vegetable.
Let it reduce for 5 minutes for the vege to get down in volume.
Add the tomatoes.  Reduce again for 5-10 minutes.
Add beans.
Salt and pepper to taste.  If you forgot to rinse the beans, do not add salt.
