Superfoods come and go. But greens—beans, peas, broccoli, cabbage, lettuce; arugula, watercress, and spinach, not forgetting the all important kale, spinach's denser and more nutritious cousin—are here to stay. No longer regulated to the side of the plate, greens now take center-stage.
Part of The Goodness Of… series of healthy ingredient-led cookbooks, Greens offers vibrant recipes packed full of goodness and explores the different textures and flavors provided by these nutrient-dense ingredients. From Pea Soup and Watercress, Sorrel & Wild Leek Broth to Spinach Tart and Wild Rice, Kale & Pomegranate salad—and even kale chips—these delicious recipes will allow you to embrace your inner Pop-eye and get creative with your greens.
Green vegetables are full of antioxidants and great sources of vitamins A, C and K, folate and manganese, which support healthy bones and reduce inflammation.
