Collard greens are a familiar southern specialty. But did you know that
they are very low in calories, contain no fat, and are packed with
nutrients? A one cup serving has 10 calories, 1 gram of protein, 4% of your
daily dietary fiber, 6% of calcium, 20% of vitamin C, and a whopping 50% of
vitamin A! Try frying bacon, sautéing onions and garlic in the same pot,
then adding chopped collard greens and a can of chicken stock. Cook
about 30 minutes, or until greens are tender, adding red pepper flakes,
vinegar, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste.
