Default Beet Greens

Tomorrow may be Pickled Boiled Dirt Chunk-making day at Dom
Schallerovych. I paid $6 for 3 bunches (maybe 6-7 per bunch) of beets.
If I get two pints of PBDC out of them, I'll feel lucky. Steep prices ‹
last year those would have been dollar bunches.

AFAIC the only edible part of it are the tops. I cooked them down and
am curious to know if there's anything one might do with them besides
cooking them and eating them like spinach. Whaddaya think?

While I was thinking about this post, I wondered about the feasibility
of cream of spinach (or beet greens, as the case may be) soup.

My sister says she freezes the cooked greens. Anyone here ever do that?
I didn't think so.
