Curly Kale With Raisins, Walnuts and Chili

I discovered this winning combination by accident. I was looking for a veggie side-dish that would go well with lentils and was quick and easy to prepare. Onion and carrot also go into the mix. The sweetness of the carrot and raisins is a wonderful pairing with the earthy flavors of the kale and walnuts. Enjoy!
