BEET GREENS WITH BACON AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR



Beet Greens With Bacon and Balsamic Vinegar image

This recipe is in my hubby's top 5 favorite! He is notorious for picking out the beet bunches at the farmer's market by looking at the tops without even checking out the actual beets at the bottom. Easy to make and tasty with or without the added roasted beet roots. Time does not include the beet root roasting time.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch beet leaf, washed, drained and roughly chopped (about 3-4 beets worth)
