Day 196 -- The Beet Goes On

I added another new food to my list today.  Beet greens!  My dad brought me a few bunches of beets from his garden and I decided to saute the greens in a little olive olive, onion (also from my dad's garden) and garlic.  And I have to say, they were very tasty!

Beet greens are high in vitamins and minerals, speicifically vitamines  A, C, and K.   They're also high in fiber, iron and potassium.  And I've always had trouble getting enough greens into my diet so when they land on my doorstep, I feel compelled to eat them.  I'm glad I gave them a try.  I'm feeling healthier already!
