What is your favorite food? I agree with the Not Collards statement!!

Sorry to say....

Chocolate and coffee are a given, heheh but.....Chicken Kiev is my favorite. Love it!!

Fried Green Tomatoes anybody?

Never heard of collards. I've never heard of much, to be honest!

I love broccoli. Is that weird? I also love your standard leafy greens, and who can resist the odd chunk of chocolate?

try mustard greens too, since i have trouble finding white meat to add, i use olive oil in them, momma always used white meat instead of bacon or ham. anyway is good.

you have to add a 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar to the last 5 minutes of cooking and they are fab!!!!!!!!!

also try them with neckbones just start the neckbones an hour before the collards. bring them to a boil for 5 min then simmer for and hour then add the collards to the water

you will also like mustard greens but you need lots because they shrink down so much but they cook in half the time

also the best thing i have ever put collards on top of is yellow rice by mahatma OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! with CORNBREAD ON THE SIDE BUT ADD 4 SPOONS OF SUGAR WITH THE INGREDIENTS

Chickerdoodle, you're gonna have some greeeen poop! (What? Gosh knows we talk enough about poop everywhere else on the forum!)

I like collards myself. No need to cook 'em with bacon, as long as I can have some vinegar to put on 'em, maybe a little Texas Pete pepper sauce

collards,mustard,& turnip greens are one of my favorite foods.they are best with bacon cooked in and homemade pepper sauce.

also, if you can plant some later in the summer and time it so they will get a frost on them - in the fall.you may not believe it but all collards,mustard,& turnip greens are better tasting after they have had a frost on them.

i don't have any homemade pepper sauce but do have hot peppers growing year round, one little pepper about the size of the end of my liitle finger will do a whole meal, they're that hot.
