COLLARD GREENS SOUP
1/2 c. Northern beans
2 qt. water
1 sm. ham bone
1 sm. ham hock
1/2 lb. beef short ribs
1 bay leaf
1 tsp. salt
2 potatoes, diced
1 bunch fresh collard greens (2 pkg. frozen), chopped fine
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1 blood sausage (Morzilla)
3 tbsp. bacon drippings
Soak beans overnight. In a large pot put water, ham bone, ham hock, short ribs, bay leaf and salt. Bring to boil, remove foam with a skimmer. Lower heat and simmer approximately 30 minutes. Add beans and cook until tender. Add potatoes and collard greens. Saute onion, green pepper and sausage (cut in 3 pieces) in the bacon drippings. When onion is soft, add to collard greens. Bring to boil and cook uncovered for 10 minutes. (This eliminates bitterness from greens.) Cover the pot and simmer until potatoes and greens are done.

frozen collards are cooks the same way as fresh
let come to a boil with enough water to cover you may have to add water a couple of times during the cookin process enventually the finish product will have cooked down to about 1/2 the water
greens
1 large onion
smoked meat or bacon as much as ou want
salt pepper
1 or 2 cloves garlic
and about 2 cloves garlic
after it boils turn the heat down and simmer for a couple of hours when it is done serve with cornbread top it off with some hot sauce, chopped tomatoes, chopped onion or whatever your fancy, best eaten with rice and blackeye peas

I dont eat collards, but my kids love them
I fried some bacon or pieces of salt pork until it is crispy
put in on the side, drain some of the grease,
then sautee' (on med -lo, you dont want them to burn)some crushed garlic, onion, and red and yellow peppers in the bacon grease, when the veggies are translucent add the collards (make sure they are unthawed and drain all the water out) add the seasonings you like, (you really only need salt and pepper maybe maggi) crumble bacon and add to collards
allow to simmer 0n med-lo heat for about 20 minutes
my kids love it, i put them on top of rice (and my kids put parmesan on top of the collards, they put cheese on top of everything)
I use the same recipe with fresh cabbage
note, a lot of people boil there collards, i prefer not to because it takes all the nutrients out. so i dont add any extra water, if you like soupy collards add water and a stock and simmer.
