This is a nice, simple way to prepare collards. I'm used to cooking them for a very long time, so this was quite unique to me. The lemon juice really brightened up the fresh collard greens I got at the farm. Made by a Tasty Tester for ZWT 9. -
Easy and good with the lemon juice. Made for ZWT#9 by team Hot Stuff!
