My first time eating kale and I love it! I made this the first time, without substitutions, and again with lower calorie substitutions. Both times, it was really tasty. My lo-cal substitutions were: smoked turkey instead of pancetta and 2% milk instead of heavy cream (use a bit more milk and reduce it more).Reply
