Sweet and Spicy Beet Greens and Zucchini

1 Tbsp olive oil

Greens from one bunch of beets - leaves and stems separated and chopped

1-2 zucchini or patty pan small diced

¼ cup fine chopped garlic scapes

2 (1/4-inch-thick) slices fresh ginger root, peeled and julienned (note: it is very easy to peel ginger by scraping the skin with a spoon.) 

Salt and pepper to taste

1 Tbsp maple syrup

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Cook the chopped stems, garlic scape, zucchini and ginger in the hot oil until they begin to soften; season with salt and pepper. Add the chopped greens to the skillet; reduce heat to low. Continue cooking until the leaves have wilted, about 2 minutes more.

Drizzle the maple syrup over the mixture; stir to coat evenly. Remove from heat and serve.
