Here is a delicious collard greens side you’ll be wanting to make again and again. It’s super easy, it is quick, needing just a few minutes to go from scratch to done, and it requires only a handful of ingredients. But best of all, it’s so delicious, you’ll effortlessly convert a greens-hater or two. Collards, like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower and kale, are cruciferous vegetables, which makes them super healthy. They have a very pleasant, slightly earthy flavor and are quite delicious in recipes like vegan Portuguese caldo verde and Kashmiri style collard greens. Combined with the herbs and spices I used in this recipe, they become utterly and absolutely gorgeous. These greens make a great accompaniment to almost any main dish and they are particularly for my vegan Hoppin’ John recipe, which I shared with you last week. Serve them up with that and vegan cornbread for the most perfect–and luckiest–meal you can eat on New Year’s Day.
