Preparation
Step 1
Separate the green leaves from the stems. Chop the stems into small 1/2-1" pieces and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped stems and sauté for 3–4 minutes, or until they start to soften.
Step 3
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute longer.
Step 4
Add the torn beet leaves to the skillet and toss to combine. Sauté for another 2–3 minutes, until the leaves wilt but remain bright green.
Step 5
Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning, salt, and pepper over the beet greens, and then toss gently to coat.
Step 6
Remove the beet greens from the heat.
Step 7
Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for a spicy kick, if desired.
Step 8
Serve and enjoy!
