2 large bunches of kale leaves
3 cups cooked wild rice
½ yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ tablespoon red pepper flakes
1tsp paprika

4 oz crimini mushrooms, sliced

Do this until water has evaporated and kale is wilted. Remove from saucepan and set aside. On medium-high heat, add mushrooms, onions and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to saucepan. Do not stir and let mushrooms brown and begin to caramelize. After about 5-6 minutes, stir mixture, add salt and pepper to taste, and allow to sit for another 5-6 minutes. Add kale, butter, thyme, garlic, salt, pepper, cinnamon, paprika, red pepper flakes to the pan. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. Add milk, cream, and chicken stock to the pan. Reduce heat, and cover, stirring occasionally until mixture thickens and reduces into a sauce. Add flour to thicken if necessary. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In 9X9 baking dish, combine the sauce from your pan, the wild rice and the ground turkey. Top with a single layer of sweet potato tots. Bake until tots begin to brown slightly on top, about 35 minutes.
