Collards or turnip greens the easy way
We enjoy a pot of collards or turnip greens from time to time but I hate the work it takes to do fresh ones and the frozen ones are never as good. The other day I was at Kroger and discovered they had, in the meat section, baked ham that had been chipped and bagged for sale. In the fresh vegetable section I found collards and turnip greens that were washed, chopped and ready to cook, in bags. I bought both. I came home and put a little oil and the ham in my pot. When the ham was heated, I added my bag of collards. Now I picked over them and got rid of the tough stems, but that's just me. Then I sauteed them slightly. I added a little more chicken broth and some salt, covered with a lid. Lowered the heat and in a little while I had this really good pot of collards. Since the meat was in the collards I just made corn bread and the the corn recipe I have already posted. I was a great meal. I look forward to eating the left over today because everybody knows collards are always better the second day.
