Garlic ginger kale bowls with cauliflower rice from above.

These garlic ginger kale bowls couldn’t be easier; simply chop up some garlic and ginger, stir-fry with some ground meat or a can of beans, and add kale. Voila! A flavorful, healthy, comforting dinner in no time.

I put it on top of cauliflower rice, but any grain like brown rice or quinoa would work well. I just like the idea of putting vegetables on vegetables ;).
