My comfort food is a little odd. When I'm having a rough day and I need a lunch or dinner that will make me feel happy, I always turn to the trusted greens and egg noodles. The beautiful thing about this simple recipe is that you can (and I have) use any greens you have around -- Swiss Chard, turnip greens, beet greens, kale, spinach, even broccoli rabe will work (although it may take a bit more cooking). I use garlic salt instead of fresh garlic to speed up on the prep, but you can use fresh garlic if you prefer.
This recipe is for a single, generous serving.
Greens and Egg Noodles
- 2 oz uncooked wide egg noodles
- 1 bunch of greens (any kind - see above), washed and roughly chopped with water still clinging to the leaves
- olive oil
- juice of 1 lemon
- whipped butter
- garlic salt
- crushed red pepper
Fill a pot of water and bring it to a boil and cook egg noodles according to the package directions.
Pour a small amount (a tsp or two) of olive oil in the bottom of a pot on medium heat. Sprinkle red pepper flakes into the oil according to how spicy you like things. (Start off with just a shake - you can always add more later).
When the oil is warm, add the chopped greens, sprinkle generously with garlic salt, and cover the pot. Let the greens cook, stirring occasionally, for ten minutes or so, until they've cooked down and are tender. If there is too much liquid in the pot, uncover and cook uncovered until it reduces. If there is too little liquid to steam/saute the greens, add a sprinkle of water and cover the pot again.
When the greens are cooked and the noodles are done, drain the noodles thoroughly. Add the juice of a small lemon, and about a tbsp of whipped butter (or less) to the greens and stir until butter melts. Add noodles to the greens, mix well and taste. Add garlic salt or extra hot pepper if needed.
Prep time - minimal
Nice enough to bring to someone's house? Perhaps, but this is best made for just one or two people.
Would I make it again? Over and over!

ReplyDeleteA canola oil plant is a specialized facility dedicated to the extraction and production of canola oil from canola seeds. This industrial plant plays a pivotal role in the canola oil manufacturing process, employing advanced machinery and processes to ensure efficiency and quality. The journey begins with the thorough cleaning and preparation of canola seeds, followed by pressing or solvent extraction methods to extract the oil. The extracted crude oil then undergoes refining processes such as degumming, neutralization, bleaching, and deodorization to produce the final clear and stable canola oil. Canola oil plants are essential in meeting the global demand for this versatile and heart-healthy cooking oil, used in various culinary applications and food products. These plants represent a crucial link in the supply chain, ensuring that high-quality canola oil reaches consumers for cooking, baking, and other everyday uses.
