Great Greens

All of us have heard “eat your greens,” but beyond throwing together a basic salad, most of us have no idea how to literally go green with our diets. The sub-title to this cookbook is “fresh, flavorful, and innovative recipes”…and they certainly are. (Although—not surprisingly—you won’t find a collection of dessert recipes. Maybe that’s for the best…or maybe asparagus-kale cookies would be the next great taste sensation!) A glossary at the beginning lists the basic types of greens (hardy, tender, lettuce) and how they’re best prepared. After cooking your way through this book, you’ll be able to create plenty of your own green-based dinners!
