Tis the season for greens! I love greens; turnip, mustard, collard, kale, spinach and beet. This is the time of year that greens are in season and plentiful at the local market or grocery store. I can often find them sourced from local farms at the grocery store I go to. This makes it even better because I am supporting local farmers and not having to wonder which state they traveled hundreds of miles from. I like to cook them with onion, garlic, a splash of Tamari sauce and finish them off with a drizzle of sesame oil. This healthy side packs a good punch of fiber, iron, magnesium, calcium, vitamin A and C. The next time you are wondering "what should I have for dinner?" think greens as they are in season, cheap, easy to cook and wonderful for you.
