1 You can sautÃ© beet greens in a tiny splash of olive oil and sliced garlic (they may not need salt), or add a pinch of crushed red pepper for some heat.  Green up any soup you are making by tossing in beet greens during the last 3-5 minutes of simmering.
Best Answer: The Muscles between the ribs are called The Intercostal Muscles. These muscles are found between the ribs, and there are two kinds: the internal and external intercostals.
Ribcage: Protects your heart and lungs. True, false and floating ribs. Your ribcage is assembled from three types of bone-your sternum, 12 pairs of ribs and 12 thoracic vertebrae. All of your ribs attach to your spine, but only the top seven pairs connect to your sternum. These are known as 'true ribs' and they are connected to your sternum by strips of cartilage. The next three pairs of ribs are known as 'false ribs'. Instead of attaching directly to your sternum, they all attach to your lowest true rib. The last two pairs of ribs are called 'floating ribs'. These only attach to your spine. Delicate ribs offer protection. Your ribs form a protective cage that encloses many of your delicate internal organs, such as your heart and lungs.
