Advertisement
Ingredients
- 16 cups chopped collards (small leaves)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt-free seasoning
Instructions
- Cut bottom stems from collards.
- Wash and cut collards into bite-sized pieces. Place in colander to drain.
- Chop garlic cloves into small pieces.
- Place olive oil into large skillet. Place on high heat to start.
- Place collards in skillet. Keep on high heat, turning collards as they saute, about 1 minute in the uncovered skillet. (You will not need to add water because of the water already on the washed collards.)
