  • 1/2 c golden, seedless raisins

Dressing

  • 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

  • 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

  • ½ Tbsp honey

  • ½ port or other dessert wine

  • 1/4 tsp toasted sesame oil

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 400°. Peel and chop potatoes into 1-inch cubes and roast for 20 minutes until tender and just barely brown. Remove pan and add kale, tossing with potatoes until slightly wilted.
