Kickin' Collard Greens

Used kielbasa instead of bacon and added cajun seasoning

The red pepper flakes add a great little bit of spice. Very good flavor over all. Would definitely make it again.

Needs some acid to balance out. Tasted like boiled cabbage, not collard greens.

i use thick bacon. I cook the bacon most of the way let it cool the cut it up, then add i, so that it finishes with the rest of the dish finish it off with the rest the dish is cooking

First time making. Not a fan of collards. BUT these were delicious! Taste like spinach!

So amazing! I have never made them before and figured they would come out awful. They were delish!

Used leftover ham instead of bacon, although both would be good. I also increased the pepper flakes to “several” pinches as we love spicey. I served pepper sauce at the table. A good and easy recipe. Will definitely make again.

Add a T apple cider vinegar and 2 tsp brown sugar, along with a few dashes of Tabasco

Make this every year on New Year’s day and the recipe never fails to please. It has just the right amount of seasoning to blend well with our spicy Mexican black eyed peas for good luck in the new year.

I'm not a big fan of greens, but the hubby loves them. I actually like this recipe. The crushed pepper gives it a little kick 🌶

Husband loved them!
