Beet Greens are the young, leafy-tops of the beetroot plant. Beet “tops” carry more minerals, vitamins and health benefiting pigment antioxidants than its taproot, and as a leafy green, are very low in calories.
Although its top greens can be harvested at any stage of growth, they are at their best while the plant is young, and its stems are soft and tender. Beet Greens are an excellent source of carotenoids, flavonoid anti-oxidants, and vitamins A, C and B.
