Ronnie's Notes
I bought the freshest, most gorgeous beets recently and used the bulbs for some recipes, but — what to do with the greens?
The greens were also crisp and perfect, as if they were just harvested.
However, Ed hates beet greens. I’ve cooked them any number of ways to no avail.
Truth to tell, beet greens are not my favorite either.
But I hate wasting food.
So I shredded the greens, shredded some cabbage, mixed them all together and made them into Cole Slaw.
PERFECT!
Not only did the beet greens add some flavor, they also provided a lovely color, which I usually get from parsley — but I didn’t have parsley, so it all worked out deliciously.
Instructions
Place the cabbages, beet greens and carrots in a large bowl and toss to distribute the ingredients evenly.
In a bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard and sugar together and pour over the vegetables.
Toss the ingredients and let rest for at least before serving.
