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

Combine the water, bouillon cube, pumpkin purée, salt, herbes de Provence, and nutmeg in a pot over high heat.
Whisk to combine, then bring the mixture to a low boil. Once the liquid boils, add the polenta, whisking it in.
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.
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.
