SIMPLE AND FRESH COLLARD GREENS
A lot of people are averse to trying dark leafy greens, believe me, I was too, as they were always described as "bitter". Now that I have had them though I love them, and only eat them like this (not fully cooked to sogginess or in soups). You get a lot of the flavor of the greens themselves and they make a great side dish to a "meat and potatoes" meal. You can substitute any mix of braising/dark leafy greens for the collards.

Steps:
- Chop your greens into 1 inch strips that are no longer than 4 or 5 inches long (or you'll be getting a mouthful of stringy greens!). (I like to cut down the middle of the leaf and then put one half on top of the other and chop into strips).
- Rinse your greens (This is an important step! The water that stays on helps these cook to perfection).
- Heat your skillet to medium and spray or add oil, and garlic if wanted. Then just add your greens (these will shrink down a lot so you can do it in a small pan) and stir just until all greens have just turned bright green, usually not more than 3~ minutes.
- Turn up to medium-hot and fry for 30 more seconds or until greens are just tender.
- Toss with salt and pepper to taste (for this amount I usually use about 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper). Serve with your favorite entree :)!

Steps:
- To prepare the collards: Cut out the thick center rib out of each collard green. Stack the rib-less greens and roll them up into a cigar-like shape. Slice over the "cigar" as thinly as possible (⅛″ to ¼″) to make long strands. Shake up the greens and give them a few chops so the strands aren't so long.
- Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, then add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add all of the collard greens and the salt.
- Stir until all of the greens are lightly coated in oil, then let them cook for about 30 seconds before stirring again. Continue stirring in 30-second intervals until the greens are wilted, dark green, and some are starting to turn browns on the edges (this is delicious). This will take between 3 to 6 minutes.
- Once the collards are just about done, add the garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to break up the garlic and cook until it's fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Immediately divide the cooked collards onto plates, and serve with a lemon wedge each.

COLLARD GREENS WITH BACON
I've never made collard greens before, but found this recipe online and gave it a try. My whole family loved them. They were great! UPDATE: I just made them without bacon since I didn't have any and just added a smoky hot sauce and they were still good. Some sort of fat just makes them extra good though.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet on medium heat. Cook the bacon in the skillet until it just begins to brown around the edges, stirring occasionally. Don't overcook the bacon. It should be barely brown around the edges and still somewhat raw-looking in the middle.
- Add the garlic, salt, pepper, syrup and hot sauce. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, about a minute. Add the vinegar, bring to a simmer, and cook until the amount of liquid is reduced by half, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Add the collard greens and the chicken broth (or water) and bring to a simmer. Reduce the temp to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the collard greens have wilted and have lost their brightness. Season to taste with additional vinegar and hot sauce. Serve with some of the pan juices from the pan.

AWESOME COLLARD GREENS

KIELBASA AND COLLARDS
The smoky flavor of the kielbasa complements the flavor of the collards while the onions season them both and the carrots add brightness to both the color and that taste. This Yankee gardening in the south finds picking fresh food in JANUARY amazing and delightful. Fresh collards beat tired cabbage out of storage hands down! We prefer our collards drier and served on a plate. If you prefer a wetter, more stew-like dish to serve in a bowl double the chicken stock.

Steps:
- Cut kielbasa in 2 inch pieces.
- Clean, trim, and chop collards.
- Put half the collards into a large pot. Add half the onions, half the carrots, and half the kielbasa with black pepper to taste. Repeat.
- Pour the chicken stock over the greens. Cover and bring to a simmer over medium to medium-high heat. It will not look like enough chicken stock, but the collards will cook down and the other ingredients will cook in the steam.
- Continue to simmer, stirring several times, about 45 minutes until collards are tender and carrots are cooked through.
- Serve accompanied by potatoes, slabs of crusty rye or sourdough bread, or squares of cornbread (try Recipe #277295).
