Garden greens--a forgotten treat

I was in the garden checking on the ground cover to see if any of it had survived the quail coveys coming through and I was pleased to see the rye up and some vetch. Then I came across a small patch of greens I had planted with leftover seeds. They were huge leaved and tall and I picked some for supper. I had forgotten all about them because once the summer crops of tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and corn come on, I forget about everything but eating them.

I have to say the greens were delicious, sauted with olive oil and garlic and a welcome change. Now I' m going to plant more while the weather is warm enough for them to get some growth. In a couple of days, the little patch I planted will be eaten up.
