Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. In a large skillet, cook kale in vegetable oil over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until tender; drain.
  3. In a large bowl, combine cooked kale, roasted red pepper, cheese, salt, garlic powder and onion powder.
  4. Fill each empanada wrapper with 2 tablespoons of filling; fold wrappers in half and seal using a fork. Cut a small vent in the top of each empanada to allow for the release of steam.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes or until empanadas are lightly browned and crisp.

Tip:

Empanada wrappers for frying may be substituted. Prepare according to directions above, eliminating cutting the small vent in each wrapper. Fry in a deep fryer at 350 F degrees for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown.
