Trying to keep salad greens fresh is a losing battle for me. I read this the other day and I will give it a try as I have nothing to lose:
Dorie prefers to keep her washed and dried greens in a plastic bag, but here's the twist: before sealing it up, she blows a little puff of air into the bag. She says that the carbon dioxide from your breath will keep the greens green all week long!
I found the above information on her web site:

When I purchase kale or spinach leaves for smoothies I freeze them and then add the quantity I need to my smoothie and this works perfect.
