Preheat the oven to 375. Cut the tomatoes in quarters and spread on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and drizzle of olive oil.

Place the remaining olive oil in a small saucepan with the minced garlic. Place over very low heat.

Remove the stems of the kale leaves. Stack up, roll like a cigar and thinly slice into shreds.

Whisk the balsamic & maple syrup with the garlic oil.

Pour over the kale and with clean hands rub and massage the dressing into the leaves.

When the tomatoes are cooked through, remove from the oven. If your kale is fairly tender, dump the tomatoes on to the greens and toss. If they kale is a bit tougher, toss the kale into the roasting pan and toss. This will wilt the kale even further and give it a more tender feel.

Serve warm immediately or cooled down.

Cheese lover? This is also delicious with strips of parmesan or manchego cheese.
