Foil Wrapped Greens – 14g Carbs, 9g Fiber

From: www.HungryMonster.com
Course: Vegetables
Serves: 4

4 cups tightly packed greens, washed and trimmed
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Note: Greens such as kale, dandelion greens or spinach.

1) Prepare grill for medium fire.

2) In medium bowl, combine greens, 2 Tbsp water, the oil, vinegar,
garlic, salt and pepper. Transfer to center of double layer of heavy-duty
foil. Make packet by bringing 2 sides of foil up to meet in center and
pressing edges together in two 1/2" folds. Then fold edges of each end
together in two 1/2" folds. Allowing room for packet to expand, crimp
edges together to seal.

3) Grill Greens until cooked through, 10-12 minutes. Remove from grill
and open packet carefully, as hot steam will escape. Divide evenly among
4 plates.
