Ev that's a tough one. All those greens are pretty distinctive. If you have a garden, try planting radishes for tender fresh greens. The Japanese watermelon radishes make the biggest, fastest growing tender greens. Even my DH ate them in salad without a whimper.

Collard greens would make a dynamite coleslaw.

Oh, but hey! Speaking of fresh greens - I just got a lead on fresh greens from my SIL. So here's my question; if you wanted to keep them solid (!) for a salad, which do you think has the mildest flavor (this would be for my hubby) - mustard, collard, turnip or kale? He already eats fresh spinach (thank all the gods), but I'd like to boost that a bit. I'm not a big fan of kale, but I suppose I could get used to it... ? Or what about beet greens? I've never had those before, but I can buy bunches of beets and use the greens...

Off to change sheets - it's MONday!!!

I love greens! I go to the supermarket and ask the produce people if they have any carrot greens. When they do, they are usually free. Radish greens, celery greens, dandelion leaves. What a great salad!!

Peace, love, laughter

I’ve been having problems trimming lately,

too. Especially Suzi’s posts – Suzi, did you get a new email program?

Sometimes it takes a little figuring and

finagling to get it right…

We sell Swiss chard, beets with and Italian chicory at the farmers market. We pass out recipes since a lot of people know they "should" be eating more greens but don't know where to start. I joke with the customers who take the recipes that carrying a greens recipe qualifies as one of the 5 daily servings of fruit and veggies. <S>

Is it hot where you live? Most greens don't appreciate the summer heat. Radishes do, so do some kinds of oriental greens, like the hybrid Joi Choi. Arugula will stand the heat too.

Ooooh. I forgot about Swiss chard. What about bok choy? I'm looking for things that aren't too bitter, so hubby will actually eat them.

Bok choi is usually a cooler season crop. The hybrid Joi Choi can take the heat.
