GREENS CAN'T BE BEET



No, I did not spell that wrong. Beet greens have lots of nutrition for you. Well, any greens do really. Beet greens are high in Vitamin A and they also have more than half of the daily recommendations for Vitamin C. So don't throw away those beet greens. Cook them up in borscht or just saute them with some olive oil and garlic.


Taste the yummy flavor when you mix lentils, feta, green onions and this wonderful dressing.

Lentil Salad Dressing

1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 teaspoon cumin

Beet leaves are incredible for taste - I just made beet leaf holopchi with them and they give a flavour that can't be compared. Wonderful salad.
