Ingredients

• 1 bunch dark leafy greens, deribbed, chopped
• 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1-2 cloves garlic, pressed or chopped fine
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Wash well, derib the big ones like collards and kale. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over a medium high heat and saute the garlic till tender, but don't let it brown. Add the greens and keep stirring till they are nice and bright green. Now add about an inch of water to the bottom of the skillet, cover, and simmer till tender. It may take awhile on the collards, the others watch and add a little more water if necessary. Stick a fork in to test for tenderness. Salt and pepper to taste, then serve with rice wine vinegar on the side (that's how I love 'em!). Completely delicious and highly nutritious.
