Key Points
   

For the best buy, look for greens that are moist and crisp, with rich green leaves.

To prepare fresh greens, rinse leaves well and trim leaves from stem.

To store fresh greems, wrap unwashed greens in damp paper towel, place in a plastic bag and keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.

Winter greens contain vitamin A, which is good for healthy eyes and skin. 

Easy Additions

Add kale, collard greens, mustard greens or Swiss chard to soups and stews. 

Cook winter greens with oil and garlic for a quick side dish.

Greens can be seasoned with vinegar, ginger, lemon juice or hot pepper flakes.

Remember to rinse all fruits and vegetables before using.
