deep greens.






"like water, beauty is ordinary and essential, 
as well as extraordinary and magnificent"

this is how i feel about my greens
kale, chard, collards, mustrads, mizuna, fava greens, pea tendrils, etc... 
i am speechless by their deep veined stamp like leaves, 
their strong spine stems, they tell us their stories
they are so ordinary, essential and amazing


this is a basic around here
they keep well for days
heat them up with eggs, beans, soup...
just about everything to get your greens in

deep greens saute

*gather*
any and every green that grabs you
kale & rainbow chard is a good start
1 - 2 bunches chopped
1 - 2 cloves garlic chopped or crushed
1 meyer lemon
coarse kosher salt
olive oil

*rock it*
SO important to have ROOM 
grab a big saute pan.. 
(bigger than that one)
dial it up to medium 
1 - 2 wrist turns of olive oil
add your garlic
let it get a bit hot
add greens
move em' around
squeeze lemon
add a bit of salt
move it around some more
let it sit too
you can put a lid on if u want
they are ready in 5 - 10 minutes 

it's doable, delish and so good for YOU!
