This is so simple and taste wonderful.
When you blanch it first it seems to have a sweeter flavor to it.
It's even good cold.

You can do this dish with any Fresh Greens. Spinach is amazing this way...just add a pinch of nutmeg to it.

A sprinkle of Parmesan cheese is a good touch

Great as a side dish to Quiche
