cut and separate the red stem and greens

 

Roughly chop the greens

Such a GREAT easy and healthy meal. I added some yummy sweet potatoes to the mix. My family ate their burgers with buns but I held off on the additional and unnecessary carbs. The meal was so filling and as we are heading into the summer months the burger will be added to a regular rotation!
