a new way to eat your greens

A week or two ago Eric and I found a great new way to eat your greens (collard greens, spinach, kale).
 
We found the recipe when we made a delicious carrot ginger potato bowl and have been making the greens as a side dish for some of our meals.
 
It's a super easy, fast recipe so it makes a great addition to your meal during the week.

Here's what you need for this recipe:
 
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 cloves garlic
1 bunch of greens (whatever type you choose)
salt and pepper to taste
 
Roughly chop your greens. Make sure to remove any large stems. Sauté garlic quickly in oil and then add the greens. Cook for a maybe 10 seconds and then add in the vinegar, salt, and pepper. Toss together and remove from heat.
 

 
The whole process literally takes less than 5 minutes. Feel free to try different types of vinegar. Just last night we tried balsamic. It wasn't as good as the apple cider vinegar; so far that is my favorite vinegar to use with this recipe.
