Wilted Greens Salad
I’ve never been a fan of plain greens. I find that I’m not alone in that opinion. I was surprised to discover my “apparent” dislike was actually the result of two things that could be avoided:the greens being cooked were not organic and fresh.the greens were overcooked, resulting in stringy, “greyish” colored vegetables that were not at all tasty. I made this discovery when I had some leftover greens that I quickly sauteed as the recipe below calls for. Ridiculously simple to make and very, very fast, the only thing that’s required is healthy, organic veggies and the caution to not overcook them. You may be surprised how delicious these are. Please let me know how you like it.Enjoy!
