Let's go green and eat greens...

Trader Joe's makes a mixed bag of Kale, Collards and Chard, already chopped and ready to go. You need a big saute pan for this recipe. Spray the pan with some sort of cooking spray (I love the omega 3 or olive oil spray). Saute an onion, add some mushrooms, salt and pepper to taste and start cooking down the greens. I also add some zucchini to to the mix. Have fun with some herbs and spices and there you have it! I portion this out and put it in the freezer. I love this mix in the morning with my eggs, or as a side with dinner.

Greens are an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin C and manganese. It is also a very good source of dietary fiber, copper, calcium, vitamin B6 and potassium.
