  1. I tried this recipe today with 3 bunches of collards with same amount of ingrediants and loved the results! Excellent flavor and I really don't like collard greens. My southern husband said "less molasses" but awesome.
     
  2. Really great. I made these for my English husband who is suspicious of anything green~~~ he LOVED them!
