How do you Salvage Salad Greens?
@Food52 recently did this post on salvaging salad greens in soup. I just did this with some leftover tatsoi. Sure some of you have tips. Any suggestions?
-
olivettefarm 9yr Love tatsoi! I like to add that to smoothies when I have a ton. I also like to grill romaine heads if they're beginning to wilt. -
katewilson 9yr Those are good ones. My dad loves spinach in his smoothies. And he's a beast behind the grill! Grilled romaine sounds great with blue cheese. @olivettefarm -
sugardetoxme 9yr I take my wilty kale and turn it into kale chips. Usually add a little cumin or nutritional yeast for added B vitamins. Bet @serveMEnow @gingerandchorizo @Cravingsinamsterdam @JenniferEmilson and @chefshauna @MLapi can chime in too -
serveMEnow 9yr Salad greens whether wilted or fresh are perfect in my "one-pot-clean-out-your-fridge" stir-frys. Adds bulk and character to that seemingly boring quick meal. I usually do this for my #meatlessmonday meals to literally, clean out the fridge. Turn that wok on HIGH and toss in those left over grains, greens, and vegetables. Spice it up with chilis, turmeric, and/or that cumin and nutritional yeast that @sugardetoxme suggested and your all set. -
DietID_TeamDietitians 9yr Awesome suggestion @serveMEnow. I'm a big fan of throwing wilted greens into a quick sauté followed by a frittata. It's the easiest way to use up leftovers and create a speedy, hearty meal. Also a great #meatlessmonday option! -
MLapi 9yr I turned some Kale into a delicious pesto the other night for dinner. Worked really well for a winter alternative. -
sugardetoxme 9yr +1 to @MLapi pesto

gingerandchorizo 9yr In Smoothies or add them into fried rice (you know I am a big fan ;)) at the last minute to give crunchiness! @sugardetoxme also in quick stir-fry like @serveMEnow suggested. I will cook kale in a lentil stew :) -
DietID_TeamDietitians 9yr Yes @gingerandchorizo I've gotten so many great fried rice ideas from you already!!

tinabeans 9yr I know it isn't cool to buy lettuce anymore (jk) but it's great sautéed in butter! Also with sesame oil and some hot sauce.
