Instructions:

1. Prep the Greens: Thoroughly wash the beet greens. Separate the leafy tops from the tougher stems. Chop the stems into ½-inch pieces and roughly chop the leaves.

2. Sauté Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30-60 seconds, until fragrant.

3. Cook the Stems: Add the chopped stems to the pan first. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly.

4. Wilt the Leaves: Add the chopped leaves to the skillet. Toss everything together and continue to sauté for another 2-4 minutes, until the leaves have wilted and become tender.

5. Season and Serve: Remove the pan from the heat. Drizzle with lemon juice (or vinegar) and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
