I'm in love with this stuff. I've been buying it at Trader Joe's. It's one
of those bagged mix of greens for cooking and includes spinach, chard, and
"other leafy greens" with crisp shredded carrots and red cabbage. The
amount of carrot and cabbage is very minor - just enough for a bit of
color. The greens are young and tender and cook very quickly, and the
flavor is very nice. The label gives the carb content for the whole bag at
9 g, with 6 g fiber - very low. It's the best greens blend I've ever
found.

Tonight, for one serving, I sauteed some onion, cubed paneer cheese, and a
sliced cilantro chicken sausage in a little olive oil. When nicely
browned, I added some diced garlic and a handful of chinese-style pea
pods, covered and cooked for a minute. Then I stirred and added half a bag
of the greens mix, and cooked for several minutes, covered, stirring
occasionally. I seasoned with a little salt and flaked red pepper. Very,
very good. Plus, very very easy and I feel quite virtuous about eating my
greens.

I see someone beat me to it on this topic. I bought and cooked them for
the first time last week -- YUM!

I defrosted and baked a little halibut steak (also from TJ's) which I
accompanied by the jacket from a baked potato (with butter pats
inserted) and half a bag of the aforementioned mixed greens, sauteed
quickly in olive oil to which a little minced garlic had been added.
What a fine dinner! And it felt very sophisticated. :-)

I think I'll try an olive oil 'n garlic saute this weekend, since I was at
TJ's yesterday and picked up another bag. This is just the *best* greens
blend I've ever tried. Glad it's not just me. 8-)
