Greens

Broad beans - sweet and delicious! Aren't they cute?
Steamed artichokes. Did you know that artichokes have a substance that inhibits our sweet receptors, and that the next bite of food we take sweeps these guys off of the receptors, and that this resets our sweet receptors and makes us perceive sweetness? Isn't that cool? No wonder food tastes sweet after a bite of artichoke.
Fresh chopped scallions from farmers market...mmmm
Blanched bok choy. Nature is so beautiful, no?
