Pro tip! Pre-cut your kale. Eat greens all week.

LezEngel Yes, this is a great way to save greens and make life easier! I like to add a paper towel to the bag to absorb any excess moisture that may hasten their demise.

MargaretG @LezEngel thank you! As you can see moisture is an issue for mine so thanks for the tip!!

Eat your turnip greens!
Don't get rid of your turnip greens! Chop them off of your turnips before storing in the fridge in order to help the greens and roots last longer. We like to lightly sauté the greens in garlic and ...

FarmerDave I add them to a simple stir fry with ginger and tamari. I never used to keep turnip greens, but I'm so glad I do now.
-
RahulRaRa I wonder if you can use these greens like you use spinach in some Indian flatbreads.
