To sauté the greens:

Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet until hot.

Add the garlic, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Stir in the beet greens, cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the greens are wilted.

Add the balsamic vinegar, and cook for another 1 minute.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

To assemble the crostini:

Spread the goat cheese evenly on each slice of baguette.

Top with a tablespoon or two sauteed beet greens.

Drizzle with some fresh lemon juice from lemon wegdes.

Serve and enjoy!
