Macaroni With Kale And White Beans

1. 1

   ["Cook macaroni according to directions, making sure to not overcook.", "Rip kale off its stem into bite-sized pieces. (Be sure not to use the stem, as it is quite bitter. I've tried cutting it, but it works better to rip it).", "Rinse kale in a large bowl of cold water and drain.", "Heat oil in a large skillet or stockpot (you will need a lid later).", "Add garlic and red pepper, cooking over med-high heat for about 2 minutes.", "Stir in kale and broth and cover pan, stirring occasionally, until kale is wilted but bright green and tender, about 7 minutes.", "Gently stir in salt, followed by beans, macaroni, and Parmesan. (Do not use canned parmesan, as it really will not taste right. Use the ""real"" grated parmesan!)."]
