This is not quite a slaw and not a traditional salad; it's plain delicious! A tangy BBQ sauce dressing is the perfect choice to complement the collards, crispy bacon, tart green tomatoes and sweet carrots.

Ingredients

Carolina BBQ Vinaigrette:

Directions

  1. Thinly slice the collards and place in a serving bowl. Add the oil and salt and massage the collards until well coated (see Cook’s Note).
  2. Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together the barbecue sauce, oil, honey and vinegar until smooth.
  3. Add the pimientos, bacon, carrots, tomatoes and onion to the collards. Drizzle with the vinaigrette. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Cook’s Note

Don't skip the step of massaging the collards; the process makes them super tender.
