List: Dark Leafy Greens Recipes

List: Dark Leafy Greens Recipes

posted by Rachel Cole

Just in time for St. Patrick's day we've put together a collection of some fantastic green recipes - dark leafy green to be exact. It seems we can't be reminded often enough about the powerful role that these veggies play in a healthy diet. Packed with calcium, folic acid, iron, potassium, vitamins A, C, and K - they are one of nature's multivitamins. And we love them all, from spinach to kale to chard, but sometimes it takes an inspirational recipe to get us back in the kitchen eating our greens and more than a few of those we've listed below do the trick.

- mess o’ greens
- simple collard greens
- greek kale salad
- braised greens tacos
- spicy black eyed peas with collard greens
- dal with collard greens
- greek-style chickpeas with greens and tomatoes
- Deborah Madison’s chard and saffron tart
- braised winter greens with chickpeas, onions, and garlic
- middle eastern greens soup
- sauteed turnip greens with chile flakes and mustard
- kale 101 (video)
- tuscan kale and beans on toasted bread
- beautiful bulgar and spinach pilaf
- simplest spinach with nutmeg butter
- winter greens with goat cheese on pain poilâne
- cashew chard “burrito”
- edamame salad with baby beets and greens
- artichoke heart & spinach gratin

This year, instead of your favorite leprechaun sweatshirt or four-leaf clover necktie, how about simply celebrating the luck of the Irish with a great green leafy meal?
