Recipe of the Day - October 25 (greek greens)
 

Wild Greek Greens

Ingredients
1 pound radishes, green tops only (save radishes for another use)
1 pound mustard greens
1 pound turnip greens
1/2 pound spinach
1/2 pound amaranth or chickweed, if available (if not, substitute arugula or other greens)

Preparation
Place the radish tops and mustard greens in a steamer and turn the heat to high. After they wilt, in about 5 minutes, add the turnip greens and cook another 5 minutes. Add the remaining greens and cook until they are all wilted, about another 5 minutes.

Drain well and arrange the greens on a serving platter. Whisk together the dressing ingredients, drizzle the dressing evenly over the greens, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Serves 4-6.
