I tried the greens recipe. The flavor was pretty good, they still

seemed very tough though. I know that these are like the healthiest

foods on Earth and am determined to like them! Should I try using

mustard greens in the recipe instead? Also, what do you do with Kale?

I always find recipes steamed kale with garlic. That is still kind of

harsh for someone not acclimated to green yet!
