If you're wondering, as I have, what you'll ever do with another bag full of greens here are some ideas that are getting us through "greens" season:
1) When in doubt, Option #1 - make a quiche
Make or buy your favorite pie crust and fill it with....
-5-6 eggs lightly beaten
-half a cup of milk
-1 cup of your favorite cheese (I like sharp cheddar or parmesan)
-1-2 cups of steamed or sauteed greens (you MUST MUST MUST drain the water off very well or you'll end up with soggy quiche - yuck)
-Bake it for 45-55 minutes at 350 (until the center is set), and you have a tasty treat full of whatever veggies you couldn't fit in anywhere else in your weekly menu.
When in doubt Option #2 - lasagna
-Steam, saute or boil your greens and use the cooked greens to replace the spinach in a spinach lasagna or calzone. YUM!
We hope you're having a great week, enjoying the cooler weather, and looking forward to some more fresh veggies in your basket this week!
