Quick Cod over Kale - VIDEO

Dark greens are hands down one of the most nutrient packed ingredients you can add to you're meal (not to mention they're absolutely delicious)!

For this QuickBite, I cook up a simple piece of cod fish to top off a big pile of kale sautéed with raisins and pine nuts. 

Now as you'll see, after cooking up the kale I add my pine nuts and raisins, but I have to say, after filming this video I realized that by adding the pine nuts and raisins in with the garlic, it really helps to bring out their flavor a bit more, making this dish even more delicious.  Either way you can't go wrong, so by all means, experiment a bit to see which you prefer!!
