Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Use any type of greens- kale, spinach,chard, mustard, or a mix of these- but cook them seperate if using a combination as they all have different cooking times. Follow this recipe as a guide, but don't get caught up in the quanities. Trust your instincts. Adjust the amounts proportionally. You cannot go wrong. Add these greens to anything-pile them on warm bread, eat them in the morning with eggs, add to a salad, or eat them cold from the fridge. They keep about a week.
