Recipe of the Day - Idiot Namesake's Edition

With my idiot namesake's day coming up on the 17th, I figure I should give a recipe appropriate for the day

Vegan Colcanon

* 2 medium potatoes, scrubbed
* 1 cup kale, stems removed and coarsely chopped
* 2/3 cup low-fat soymilk
* 3 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions
* salt and pepper to taste

Cut potatoes into large chunks. Add to a medium saucepan with enough water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce heat cook until tender when pierced with a fork—about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, add about one inch of water to a medium saucepan. Insert steamer basket, bring to a boil then reduce heat to simmer. Add kale, cover, and steam for about 4 minutes. Remove kale and place in a mixing bowl.

Once potatoes are cooked, peel and add to kale.

In a small skillet, heat the soymilk and scallions, and simmer 5 minutes. Add to potatoes and kale and mash together. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

My favorite recipe for colcanon is cabbage, onions, and potatoes all boiled with bacon and mixed together but it would be vegan without the bacon. Blessed Be, Angelique
