AnnaAnna

ingredients

  • 2 pounds collard greens
  • 6 to 8 slices bacon
  • 4 to 6 cups water
  • 1/2 to 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning (such as Tony Chacheres)

directions

  • 1

    Wash collard greens until thoroughly clean. Cut out thick stalks and any thick veins. Roll leaves and cut into 1/2-inch strips.

  • 2

    Dice bacon and cook to render some of the fat. Discard fat (or save for another use).

  • 3

    Bring water to boil and add the chopped onion, bacon, salt, pepper, red pepper and Cajun seasoning. Add greens to boiling water. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for about 1 hour, or until greens are tender.
