Greens, Greens, the Glorious Food

Collard greens with roasted red peppers. Yum.

Greens are a fantastic food. I mean really, if your goal is to eat healthily and especially if you're going to follow a Paleo Diet model, develop a taste for them. They're flavorful, packed with micro-nutrients like calcium, iron, vitamin A... the list goes on.  If you're just getting into the Paleo Diet, they make a brilliant plate-filler to help you curb the craving for all those carbs you've probably been eating.

I met this really great guy named Orie through my athletes Chris & Sara, who had this really great blog called Eat Move Thrive. He hasn't had the time to update it in quite a while, and we can only hope he finds time to take it up again and stop letting his cutting edge molecular biology research get in this way.

Here is the point of that tangent: he had an excellent post regarding greens which I shan't duplicate and which is responsible for the brevity of this post, replete with a fantastic recipe, which you can read here.

There are also great recipes here, here, and here.

Bon appetit!
