Alright, so I never thought I would like collard greens because they always look soggy and weird on Food Network whenever I see them. Not the prettiest food out there. But I got them in my basket this week and so I needed to try to do something inventive with them. I looked on Food Networks website, and I found something someone posted on Facebook, and changed it to my liking. See what you think, you might find you like them, too. Surprised me, too!
Collard Greens
4 slices bacon, diced
1/2 an onion, diced
1 bunch collard greens, washed and stems removed
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add collard greens and boil for 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, and let cool. In a skillet, heat bacon til fat is rendered and meat is crisp. Add onions and saute in the bacon fat, and then add your drained greens. Cook til moisture is absorbed and everything is heated through. Serve hot with your favorite protein. We had it with fried chicken and cornbread.
