Eat Them Right Out Of The Pot Vegetarian Collard Greens Food

VEGAN SOUTHERN COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Coat a large deep skillet or pot with vegetable oil.
• Saute onions until almost tender over medium heat and then add in garlic.
• Cook until onion and garlic are fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
• Add in vegetable broth.
• Season broth with smoked salt and red pepper flakes.
• Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed. Make sure it's to your liking because this is how your greens will taste.
• Bring to a simmer and reduce heat.
• Add in the greens. Green will wilt down as they cook.
• Simmer for 1 hr to 1 hr 30 mins. Do not boil. Add more vegetable broth if needed. May need more or less time so be sure to check them after 30-45 minutes. When done, greens will be dark green, tender and will not have a raw taste.
• Add in more smoked salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and hot sauce, if desired. ( I always do!)
• Enjoy!
• Add hot sauce or vinegar if desired.
