Stir fry greens include spinach, garlic greens, arugula and swiss chard; a nice blend of mild and spice. The red veins of the swiss chard add nice color and texture when stir-fried. The garlic greens, or the middle leaves of growing garlic, when sliced like green onions add a mild garlic flavor to the stir fry. The arugula adds a mild pepper flavor.
Ingredients:
- Spinach
- Arugula
- Swiss Chard
- Garlic Greens (chopped)
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil (or your choice of cooking oil) in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Add all greens, including chopped garlic greens. Remember greens cook down so add more than you think.
- Stir gently as greens wilt down for about two minutes.
- Add 1/4 cup of water, reduce heat, cover and steam for 5 minutes.
- Serve on their own or mix in with other foods (they go great with just about everything!).
- If desired you can also add pine nuts, sesame seeds or additional vegetables for variety.
