Greens
“Greens” typically refer to kale, swiss chard, and collard, beet, turnip and mustard greens. All are packed with vitamins, minerals, fiber and array of phytochemicals which may reduce the risk of heart disease, eye diseases, and certain cancers. You can use these greens in any way you would use spinach, which is the most common “green”.
- Grilled Summer Vegetables with Herbs
- July 2009 Grilling is a fast way to cook, especially in the summer when you don’t want to heat up the kitchen! Adding fresh or dried herbs, which contain antioxidants, can drastically increase the nutritional value of your meal. UltraLite information: 2 servings, 5 carbs each.
- Summer Spinach-Strawberry Salad
- June 2009 This fresh salad that highlights the best of the season is a nice mix of sweet and savory. It is also an UltraLite-approved lunch for women! Men should add two more strips of bacon.
- Kale & Carrot Salad
- March 2009 I am known within my circle of friends for this fresh, easy salad which always surprises people because it is not cooked—and they actually like it!
- Italian-style Greens
- March 2009 I served this once at Thanksgiving and it was a smash, even with my daughter, who was two years old at the time.
- Beans and Greens Soup
- March 2009 A good, savory winter soup. Of course, soups are very nutrient rich because you drink the broth in which the vegetables have been cooked, so you don’t lose any nutrients.
- Kale and Walnut Pesto
- March 2009 This version of pesto is particularly good over roasted root vegetables, but it works great over whole wheat pasta, too. You can also used it as a dip. If you plan to freeze it, add the cheese only after the pesto has thawed, when you are ready to serve. Shareholder (adapted from the Seed Savers Calendar, 1998).

- March 2009 I love this recipe! So much so that, despite my tendency to alter most recipes, this is one of the rare recipes I make as directed!
