Ingredients

1 bunch greens (mustard, chard, kale, collards, etc.)

⅓ cup low sodium broth

1 teaspoon fresh garlic, chopped

1 tablespoon lemon juice

salt and pepper, to taste

Parmesan cheese to top (optional)

Directions

Wash hands with warm water and soap. Wash produce well.

Cut greens into ½ inch strips, including stems. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes before cooking. This minimizes bitter flavors.

Preheat a large sauté pan over medium high heat and pour in broth. When broth begins to boil, drop greens into pan then cover with lid. Lower heat to medium and cook for 7 minutes.

Turn off heat and remove lid. Toss with garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Serve immediately. (Recommended with ½ cup of cooked brown rice or other grain.)
