Greens for the "green" month

I have all these greens this month that I’ve been getting from Rock Star Farms CSA.

What do I do with them all? Discussions are beginning to take shape among the CSA members. Here are a few things that I do with them.

We’ll see if Canada is as good at Collards as they are hockey! :-O  Save your own environment by not cooking your collards till they are beyond mush! This tidbit of advice goes for any green veggie you get your hands on. All those wonderful vitamins are long gone if you cook them too long.

Here’s a good tutorial on how to prep Bok Choy if you’ve not worked with it. I think the red pepper slices t-totally make this dish look more appetizing! Notice the huge difference between his store bought, sat in the market for days bok choy in comparsion to the picture up top of the beauties from Rock Star Farms! And you wonder why Local food is better? not anymore!
