Ingredients
- 8 oz Dried fusilli pasta (or pasta of your choice)
- 1½ tsp Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Butter
- 1 tsp Member's Mark™ Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 8 cups Kale, chopped
- 2 tbsp Member's Mark™ Green Goddess Seasoning
- 1 Lemon, juiced
- ¼ cup Shredded parmesan
- ¼-½ cup Plain low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Hot pasta water divided
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
- Cook pasta al dente according to package instructions.
- While the pasta is cooking, sauté the garlic in the butter and olive oil over low heat in a big pot, being careful not to burn.
- Add the kale to the pot and mix with the butter, olive oil and garlic. Turn to medium-low heat. Season with Member's Mark™ Green Goddess Seasoning.
- Allow the kale to steam for about five minutes, or until tender. Stir in the lemon juice. Once the pasta is cooked, add it to the pot with the kale and stir.
- Finish by stirring in the parmesan, Greek yogurt, and a bit more pasta water. Add a few tablespoons at a time until your greek yogurt turns into a sauce. Stir in the cherry tomatoes, and serve.
