A good tip for smoothies: add courgette (zucchini). I put a 1/4 courgette into a smoothie and it really enhances the creaminess and thickens it up a bit but the flavour isn't detectable at all.

Very enjoyable ways to eat greens are: 1. Tabbouleh (parsley salad) 2. Falafel (homemade or otherwise good quality they should be quite green inside, a good recipes would be from the channal downshiftology) 3. Spinach cake (sounds wierd, but it tasts sweet and unoffending like a normal vanilla cake or whatever else you combined it with. Cinnamon or matcha are very good candidats!) 4. Spinach peanut stew (sounds wierd, but is awesome and a nore well knowen african dish) 5. pestou or other green sauces (go well with pasta, but also potatos, great addition to mashed potatos. Can also be used as a glaze and sauce for fish or chicken. I filled a whole troute with it and it was awesome! Does well on sandwiches too. Classicly pestou is made from basil, but the same concept works with other greens like parsley, carrot greens too.) 6. Greenpea and mint soup is a very good spring/summer dish! 7. Tortilla, Wraps or pancakes useing spinach other tips 8. Just throw a bit of green mild green into whatever curry you might cook, or one pot pasta 9. Find ways to enjoy cabbage ( a. I love a wild variety thinly sliced as a refreshing and crunchy salad, b. one can fill the leaves and steam them c. make a very simple pasta dish by patialy browning the cabbage in a pan, adding butter or almond butter for taste, salt, and well some typ of noodle. Cabbage tasts increadably good once it got a some gold brown coloring going on.)

Hi Meghan I’m new to your channel I like #2, using a leafy green as a wrap and your tip to adding extra starches to the wrap. I like hummus and making spinach hummus is a great idea! I love smoothies and this is a great way to add more greens. I agree with planning to have greens in your meal prep. All your tips are so wonderful and thank you for this amazing video!

This is such a great, practical video!! I’m definitely trying that hummus tip - never would have thought of that! Also, another tip that’s helped me a lot, is to chop greens SUPER tiny when cooking them. I have such a texture aversion to cooked greens, so biting into a whole leaf of cooked spinach is disgusting to me. But teeny tiny bits of spinach I don’t mind at all. It’s really helped me get more greens into my cooking. 🙂

The greens as a wrap thing is amazing. Love collards and chard for this. I make Korean-inspired "tacos" this way and they are spectacular. I actually find them pretty filling sans starch because of all the chewing I am doing (I haven't steamed them, though). Really great tips - thank you.

Yessss, I always eat the tops of celery and beets! When i buy them I make sure the tops look good because imma go in on those, too! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I forage for greens also! I get wild mustard leaves, wild onion, dandelion leaves, greenbrier, wood sorrel, pepper weed and curly dock. When Spring hits, i go out! Lol. But I did harvest some wild mustard greens I think back in November or December. The leave ate young and tender so I got me some. So good! I'm gonna try the humms tip! 😊 I like too try different greens. Like one bok choy. I did escarole, broccoli rob, and edive. Like I said before, I forage greens also. It's a great way to try different greens, and they are very nutrient dense! Oh, and i like to blend basil up with orange juice. Omg, so good!

Loved this! Quick question for your expertise though. I recently had a huge Asian market open nearby with greens I’ve never seen or heard of before that I’m excited to try. What would you say is the bigger factor, getting tons of greens into the diet because of their benefits or making sure that those greens are quality, organic produce? I don’t know if you know what I mean when I say I don’t exactly feel the most comfortable with some random, unlabeled product, ya know?

Oh, and also another way to get different greens in your diet is to eat tree leaves. Many tree leaves are edible. I eat mulberry leaves. I love them. I justbwantntonsay, if you forage for wild plants, make sure you Identify them correctly before you eat them! Do not eat something or touch it before you know what it is! Take a picture of it, go home and try to identify it. Peace out everyone! 😊

You can’t tell me what to eat! I’m tired of everyone pushing their stupid veggies on me. They taste nasty, no matter how you cook them. Boil them, steam them, roast them-still gross! Just get them away from me! I want my putotos, crispy and golden, not some mushy, bland vegetable that looks like it’s been through a blender. I don’t care if people get mad; I’m not eating that stuff. Veggies are dumb! Give me flavor, give me comfort! I’ll take my potatoes any day over that green nonsense. So, please, just let me enjoy my food in peace!
