I found you via Ann’s Food on Friday.
I love greens – I’ve never made them this way. I don’t have lots of experience with the big, leafy greens but love trying new things. I love spinach but I agree, sometimes is isn’t the texture I’m going for. I recently made a soup with kale and it was so flavorful and still had a good bite. Thanks for sharing!

I love getting my greens this way. I cook them just as you said along with any other veggies I need to use that will go bad (mushrooms, peppers, onions, etc.) and serve it over brown rice–sometimes with meat and sometimes not. SO GOOD. Surprisingly also good over pasta!

Mustard greens are my favorite kind (with a big pan of cornbread) , but I have never cut them or had them with tomatoes. Thanks for a new recipe and an interesting post!

I’d like to try it too. My mother used to make kale when we were small and I really liked it (I was not a picky eater whatsoever). I think she just boiled or steamed it and we sprinkled vinegar on it. I miss that. I don’t think I’ve ever made it myself. I wonder if your recipe would work with kale. Anyway, I want to try this. It looks very healthy to me.

That looks really delicious to me. I am an American Midwestern girl, so I didn’t grow up with greens (though in parts of our state I’ve met people who make them with every main meal, but they’ve often come from the South). They always make them that unhealthy way you mentioned. This looks like a delicious and healthy alternative. I’m going to try this sometime.
