really good greens

These greens were so good, which kind of amazed me as they didn't have bacon grease or any of that.  I emptied all the greens from my fridge and cooked them up together in a pot (there were radishes and turnips and perhaps other things).  Unfortunately they cooked down to not very much, but it was very tasty!

From here (Healthy and Delicious Southern Turnip Greens).

1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth (I used a pint jar of home canned broth)
1 1/2 cups water
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound turnip greens, chopped
1/2 teaspoon white sugar

Bring chicken broth, water, oil, salt, and pepper to a boil in a stockpot. Add turnip greens and sugar and return to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring every 15 minutes, until greens are tender, at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.  Note:  I cooked them without a lid to get the liquid to reduce.  It took about 2 hours, and then they were SO GOOD.  Well cooked through and super tasty from all that reduced stock.

roasted radishes and radish greens

These beautiful radishes were from my local farm, but I was saladed out and came across this recipe.  I made it for friends and one was especially enchanted with it, saying she would eat this before candy any time.  We fought over the last bit, as it didn't make much when only using one bunch of radishes. 

Roasted Radishes with Radish Greens

Ingredients
3 bunches small radishes with greens attached
2 T oil
salt & pepper
2 T butter
2 T fresh lemon juice

Instructions
Preheat oven to 500 degrees.  Wash and prep radishes and greens.

In large ovenproof skillet, heat oil until shimmering.  Add the radishes, season with salt and pepper and cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned in spots, about 2 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the radishes for 15 minutes, until crisp-tender.

Return the skillet to the burner and stir in the butter to coat the radishes. Add the radish greens and cook over moderate heat until they are wilted, about 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice and season with salt. Serve the radishes right away.
