Ingredients :

1 bunch of kale, (or collard green or turnip green);  3 medium sweet potatoes, (I used
Japanese purple potatoes); 4 slices of thick cut lean bacon;  2 cloves garlic, minced;
1/4 tsp chicken powder, sea salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Directions :

Wash the sweet potatoes, wrap in tin foil and bake in a 350F oven for 45 minutes or
until tender to touch. Cool and cut into bite size pieces.
Slice the bacon into strips. Heat a pan over medium high heat, fry the bacon until cooked 
and nicely brown, remove from the pan. 
When the bacon is cooking, wash the kale, cut the tough inner spine out and roughly chop 
the leaves. Add the kale, garlic and chicken powder to the pan with the bacon drippings
and stirfry over medium heat until the kale is wilted, about 3 minutes.
Return the bacon strips to the pan and add the sweet potato pieces, stirfry for another 
2 minutes until all the liquid are absorbed. 
Season with salt and pepper and arrange in a serving dish. 

This can be a side dish for lunch or dinner, or add some fried or poached eggs for a
 hearty breakfast for a cold winter weekend morning.
