Beautiful greens being thrown away or composted seems like such a waste. Similar to arugula, radish greens have a mildly spicy flavor. Fresh from the farmers’ market, they are at their best.

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 ½ teaspoons butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 4 medium purple radishes, sliced
- 1 bunch radish greens, washed and chopped
- ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
Instructions
- Heat olive oil and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until butter melts. Add garlic and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add radish slices and sauté to bring out their sweetness, 1 to 2 minutes. Add greens and sauté until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in feta cheese.
- You can substitute sweet onion or shallots for the garlic.
- Choose a large bunch of radishes to have enough greens for 2 servings.
- Wash beet greens the same way you would
- : Cut the roots off. Fill a large bowl with cold water and submerge the greens. Swirl them around so that the grit frees itself. Use a colander to drain the dirty water. Repeat the process until the water stays clean.

Really tasty. It was a little more bitter than we prefer. I will try tweaking the recipe with the addition of a less bitter green.
