- 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth, divided
- 1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 4 pitted dates, very finely chopped

Directions:
- Put kale and 1/2 cup vegetable broth in a large pot and place over medium heat.

Meanwhile:
- Combine the remaining 1/2 cup broth, onion, dates and vinegar in a small saucepan.
- Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer, uncovered, until onion is very tender and liquid is reduced by half, about 6 minutes.
