Ingredients You Need for Pumpkin Polenta With Wilted Spiced Greens [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

For the Polenta:
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 vegan vegetable bouillon cube
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin purée
  • Good pinch of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon herbes de Provence
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 cup polenta

For the Wilted Spiced Greens:

  • 1 head of kale, ribs removed and torn into bite-sized pieces
  • Pinch of salt
  • Zest of 1 small lemon
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
  • Safflower oil or other oil of your choice

How to Prepare Pumpkin Polenta With Wilted Spiced Greens [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Combine the water, bouillon cube, pumpkin purée, salt, herbes de Provence, and nutmeg in a pot over high heat.
  2. Whisk to combine, then bring the mixture to a low boil.  Once the liquid boils, add the polenta, whisking it in.
  3. Immediately drop the heat to a simmer and continue whisking until the polenta has thickened (about 5 minutes). Taste the polenta and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  4. Heat a pan over medium heat and add a bit of oil.  Add the kale, salt, garam masala, and lemon zest and toss to coat. Cook until the kale is just wilted, then remove from the heat.
