Heat a small pot of water to boiling. Wash fresh produce. Slice onion. Mince garlic. Medium dice potatoes. Once the water is boiling, add the potatoes. Cook five to ten minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender. Drain. Drizzle with olive oil and arrange evenly on the right side of a baking sheet. While the potatoes boil, core the cauliflower and cut into florets. Drizzle with olive oil, season with a dash of salt and pepper, and toss together. Arrange evenly on the left side of the baking sheet. Roast for twenty-five minutes, or until cauliflower is brown and potatoes have crisped. ![20211203 ALawrence 5](https://www.catholicmom.com/hs-fs/hubfs/20211203%20ALawrence%205.jpg?width=3861&name=20211203%20ALawrence%205.jpg)   Separate the kale leaves from their stems. Discard stems. Roughly chop the leaves. Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a medium-sized pan. Once hot, add onion and garlic. Cook for two minutes, or until soft and fragrant. Add chopped kale and a splash of water, stir together.   ![20211203 ALawrence 4](https://www.catholicmom.com/hs-fs/hubfs/20211203%20ALawrence%204.jpg?width=4032&name=20211203%20ALawrence%204.jpg)   Sauté for about three to four minutes, or until the kale is wilted and water has absorbed.
