Egg Scramble with Kale and Pesto

Egg Scramble with Kale and PestoThis meal is so incredibly simple that I almost didn't write a post about it, but Nate and I tend to eat a variation of this almost daily so I figured I'd go ahead and put it out there. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before that I LOVE kale. It's a pretty serious affair we've got going on...I buy a new bunch every few days because it just doesn't last long. My favorite way to eat kale is sauteed either alone or with other veggies. Throw a few eggs into the mix and you've got yourself a hearty meal that will boost you with so much energy and happiness you won't know what to do with yourself!

-1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
