Start by roasting the Anaheim peppers over a griddle on medium-high heat. They don’t have to be completely toasted and charred. The objective is to bring out a little sweetness and intensify their smokey flavor. Remove the seeds and pith before roasting if you don't want it spicy. After about two minutes on each side, remove them from the griddle and let them cool while you prep the rest of the ingredients.

For the kale: Wash it, remove the stems completely, pile the leaves on top of each other and chop them into small pieces. Once your done with prepping, peel the charred skin off of the Anaheim peppers and mince them.
