Eat your greens!

Do you eat your greens?  Do you want to but not sure how?  We have been trying to have greens this fall and winter about once a week.  We have done southern style braised greens a couple of times.  But one of my absolute favorite recipes for greens is greens with carrots, feta and brown rice.

It is full of flavor with the greens and carrots, nutty brown rice and salty cheese.  I made it this week with cojita cheese, a Mexican cheese that is a cross between feta and Parmesan.  And I don't buy the frozen brown rice.  Instead I make my brown rice in the oven.

Hi. Being a Hindu from India, its easy to be a vegetarian. There are numerous pure vegetarian restaurants, veg menus in airlines and at schools, only veg meals are provided by the government.

I found it amazing that one has to make efforts to be a vegetarian in western countries. Maybe because one cannot easily shake off the non-veg palate that you're so used to.

Thanks.
