Stir Fried Beet Greens

My neighbor gave us some beets from her garden, with some beautiful greens attached. We love beets but I was not sure about the beet greens. They were so pretty that I did not want to waste them so I tried stir frying them with onions. They were great! I'm ready to do this again.

Don't throw those beet greens in the trash. They are good and so nutritious. Another way to fix them is to sauté them a little and throw in a couple of eggs and scramble together. Delicious!!
