Greens With Pinto Beans |
1 pound spinach or Swiss chard 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil 2 garlic cloves - (to 3) -- minced 3 scallions, white and green parts -- finely chopped 1 cup cooked pinto beans 1 teaspoon chili powder Salt -- to taste Freshly-ground black pepper -- to taste |
Stem and wash the greens. If you're using chard, make sure to trim the thicker mid-ribs as well. Steam the greens in a tightly covered pot until wilted. The spinach will be done as soon as it wilts, but the chard needs to steam longer. It will be done when it turns a dark green. Drain the greens and finely chop them. |
