Instructions
In a covered pot, bring about 2 inches of water to a boil. Chop the kale leaves into bite-sized pieces to yield about 12 lightly packed cups. Cook the kale for 2 to 3 minutes, until bright green and tender but not soggy. Be careful not to overcook. Drain well. In a skillet on medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the bell peppers, onions, celery, garlic, paprika, cayenne, black pepper, and salt and saute for 2 minutes, stirring often. In serving bowl, stir together the kale, sautéed vegetables, and spices. Add the corn, lemon juice, vinegar, and tomatoes and toss well. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
