Now mind you, the garden is just now starting to produce, so it was certainly slim pickings. But I had a handful of beets and a couple of zucchini, enough for a dish.
First, I heated some olive oil in my fry pan. Just as the oil heated up, I crushed some garlic into it to flavor the oil.
I sliced the beets (unpeeled) up the same size as the zucchini and threw the beets in first. I have always boiled my beets, skinned and then sliced them, so this was something new for me.
After few minutes I tossed in the zucchini and cooked both until tender.
For the last couple of minutes of cooking, I put in the beet greens and cooked until they wilted before taking it off the heat.
I added salt, pepper and a splash of balsamic vinegar for flavoring.
It was very yummy and I will be making it again this summer.

I'm your newest follower and look forward to seeing you get to your goal!!
It's great to meet you Steph. 94 pounds? THAT'S AWESOME!!! I have come to accept that this journey never really has an end, just some spots are smoother while others are more bumpy. :o)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment. I've been stuck maintaining for a year, but I am okay with that. I'm going to work hard this summer to get closer if not hit my goal! :o)
