Tonight's dinner was winter greens with carrots, feta and brown rice. And I have to say it was really really good! I thought I would share the recipe in case any of you brave souls would like to give it a try. (I know I can count on you Mrs Hockenberry!)
Keep in mind Jason does not like vegetables and is a pretty picky eater and he enjoyed it just as much as I did, he even cooked it so that tells you how easy it is to make too!
The carrots also give it a very sweet taste so the kiddos should like it too!
2 carrots shredded
2 bunches of Kale (or collard greens or Swiss chard) chop thinly
1/2 red onion finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste
Crumbled feta cheese (I think a parmesan cheese would be good too)
Brown rice
cook carrots, greens, onions, salt and pepper in a deep skillet with 1/4 cup of water.
*we used our cast iron skillet.
Cook over medium heat, tossing once or twice until greens are wilted and tender, 10-15 minutes.
Add cheese and spoon over rice.
ENJOY!!! As Olena would say, "this is doulisious!"

I keep thinking about watching that but I don't know if I can handle the huge change it would inevitably require in our lives right now. We eat healthy but I still buy meat at the grocery store. Every time I pick it up and put it in the buggy I say "we have GOT to get another beef steer". We went in on one with a few other families once and put the meat in the freezer. A quarter of a steer lasted a year for us. It was great.
