Stem and coarsely chop the greens; rinse well, but do not dry.

Heat the olive oil and garlic in a large saucepan over medium-high heat for 30 seconds. Add the greens and cook, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Discard the garlic. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a slotted spoon. Serve immediately.

Beet or turnip greens may be substituted for some or all of the mustard greens.
