Take off heat and immediately add 1 Tbsp. cumin seeds  0.5 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes Assemble salad  1 head Tuscan kale, leaves stripped from stems  Massage kale with salt until wilted, 2-4 minutes.  dress kale with  flavored olive oil, above juice of 1 lemon add to kale 5-10 oz of crumbled feta 1 cup pitted olives and combine Finally add  warm lentils, above toss again and serve with lentils still warm This is a pretty lentil-heavy combination - if you want more of a kale oriented dish, maybe bette

XFF style noodles

This is more veggie forward than the original. I make this with the brisket from Brisket Broth cook  1 serving noodles (I use about 150g of the big noodles) According to package directions. Reserving the cooking liquid drain and refresh to room temp. In the same water cook briefly (1 min) 0.5 cup cabbage, cut same width as noodles You will probably need to microwave 0.25 cup broth (from where you made the protein, probably)  4 oz cooked protein, bite sized Combine toppings in in bowl 1 scallion, chopped 1 stalk celery, chopped (this is only crunch)   2 Tbs XFF noodle sauce (in pinch 1.5 Tbs soy sauce, 2 tsp black vinegar)   1 Tbs XFF chili oil (or another Szechuan / mala) Once all is done add to the noodles and cabbage the heated protein and broth and the toppings.
