>I eat lots of dark leafy greens too. I often steam them in a Pyrex in the microwave then enclose in cheesecloth and squeeze the water out with tongs

Takes longer to prepare but if you bake them in the oven you'll get a similar result but won't lose all those nutrients in the water

Side note - you really are a maverick kind of cook lol

I choose to take that as a compliment. :-)
