Hearty Kale & Bison Ramen 

Bison might not be a staple at your dinner table (yet!) but it has less fat and calories than beef with just as much protein and up to three times as much iron. 

SERVES: 4

1 Tbsp olive oil
2 lg leeks, washed and finely chopped
2 c finely chopped fresh kale leaves, stems removed
4 lg celery stalks, chopped
1½ lbs ground bison
1 Tbsp Thai curry paste
6 c beef broth
Sea salt and pepper, to taste
3 (3-oz) packages ramen noodles, crushed
2 heads romaine lettuce, finely chopped
2 Tbsp parsley, finely chopped
1 (8-oz) can water chestnuts, drained and chopped

1. HEAT a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil, leeks, kale and celery; cook for 2-3 minutes or until tender. Add bison, Thai curry paste and beef broth; bring to a boil, add sea salt and pepper, then cover and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for another 20 minutes or until bison is tender.
2. ADD noodles and romaine, and cook for 5 minutes or until tender, then remove from oven. Garnish with fresh parsley and water chestnuts; serve warm.
