Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min

Ingredients: 2-3 bunches of whatever bitter spring greens come in your CSA box, tough stems removed and roughly chopped; 2 cloves of garlic, minced; 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil; 2/3 cup chicken broth or stock; 1/2 lemon; 1 medium heirloom tomato, chopped; 1/3 cup crumbled feta or cotija cheese; 1 tablespoon butter; 1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil; 1 bunch beets, peeled and quartered

1
In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat and add the garlic, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2
Add the greens and toss with the garlic and oil for 1 - 2 minutes.
3
Add the chicken stock and cover - simmering for 15 minutes or until your greens are tender.
4
Meanwhile, heat the butter, olive oil, and beets in a small skillet over medium heat. Saute for 10 - 15 minutes, letting the butter bubble up nicely, until the beets are tender. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
5
When the greens are done, squeeze over the lemon, and season with salt and pepper. Scoop the greens from the pot into a serving bowl. At this point, you can either chill the greens if you would like a cold salad, or you can serve them warm. Top with chopped tomatoes, place the beets just off to the side, and crumble cheese on top!
