Steps:

• Heat a large skillet with 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium-high heat.

• Add carrots to skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until tender.
• Add in zucchini and yellow squash, and sauté for an additional minute until they become slightly translucent.
• Add in the kale, followed by 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Sauté until kale begins to wilt.
