A few key ingredients you’ll need for my Lemon Garlic Stir Fry Greens

For this masterpiece, I chose Revol greens organic spring mix – it’s not just about the taste, but also about supporting organic and sustainable farming. Remember, any leafy love will do – romaine, spring mix, or any salad green you adore.
  • Lemon: Bright, tangy, and the perfect cheerleader for our greens. Fresh lemon doesn’t just add flavor; it paints a splash of sun onto our dish. Always go fresh; it’s the difference between a warm hug and a cheeky wink!
  • Olive Oil: Oh, the silky, earthy embrace of olive oil! Don’t be shy; healthy fats are our pals. Plus, olive oil brings out the beauty in our greens, making them shine and shimmy.

Who said greens should always be cold and crisp?

Sometimes, they love a warm hug from a pan, especially when infused with lemon and garlic. It’s like sunbathing for greens! This method brings out their vibrancy and flavor in such a unique way. It’s like you’ve been introduced to greens all over again!

Imagine biting into slightly wilted yet crunchy greens that have soaked up all the goodness of garlic and a tangy lemon dressing.

The Prep

Start off by warming up that olive oil in a pan. As it gets all hot and shimmery, toss in your minced garlic. Let it sauté until it starts singing its fragrant garlic song, filling your kitchen with that unforgettable aroma.

Green Magic

Toss in your Revol greens Romaine crunch mix. Season with a bit of salt and pepper. Give it a good stir, let those greens get all friendly with the garlic, and watch as they take on a slightly wilted, warm texture.

Zesty Twist

Once your greens have had their dance in the pan, it’s time for the lemon to shine! Take that fresh lemon juice and drizzle it over. The zesty lemon combined with the aromatic garlic? Oh, it’s a match made in culinary heaven!

The Grand Finish

Dish out those gorgeous greens onto a plate. But wait, we aren’t done! Sprinkle on some zingy lemon zest, crunchy pistachios, and let’s not forget our creamy avocado. Dive in and enjoy the burst of fresh, tangy, and warm flavors!
