Serves 4 as a side dish Prep and Cook Time: 15 minutes Source: adapted from the George Mateljan Foundation Formatted by Chupa Babi: 03.17.08 Healthy Cooking Tips: Toss the steamer basket up and down a few times with cooked collard greens to drain out excess water from steaming. This will keep the dressing from tasting diluted. Collard greens are a highly nutritious green that is rich in calcium, and becoming increasingly popular throughout the country. This recipe gives you an easy and great tasting way to enjoy them. New varieties are milder tasting. Try it this way, whenever you have the chance, you will be pleasantly surprised.
