Preparation Time: 30–40 minutes
Ingredients:
Directions:
Steam greens until bright and tender, about 5–10 minutes. Add cinnamon and stir until it absorbs the steaming water. Let cool a bit.
Finely chop raisins in a food processor until they want to stick together in a big chunk. Add greens to food processor and chop/mix well. Add all other ingredients to food processor and mix well. Alternatively, mix everything in the pan if you don’t want the greens chopped up.
Press into 8 x 8-inch or 7×11-inch pan (bars will be thicker in 8 x 8-inch pan). Refrigerate until firm. Cut into bars with a sharp knife and freeze some to keep from eating them all in two days.
