    Have made this recipe several times. Husband does not like collard greens - or so he said. He goes back for seconds everytime I serve this. Now even tells his mom he likes collard greens! this last time didn't have quite enough collard greens, but had some fresh bok choy left over from another recipe - added the bok choy - fantastic. Love using the Canadian Bacon - just the right touch.

    Best I've ever tasted! But since my husband is vegetarian, I used the veggie bacon instead of Canadian bacon. But really, really yummy!

    Wow! I am from the coast of SC and this was most definitely the best recipe I've used for collards, which are agreeably difficult. I am also a nutritionist, so I've been playing around with different ways to cook collards without hamhock. This was perfect! Followed it to the T and so pleased.

    Friends could not stop raving about this recipe. People of all ages wanted the recipe. We served this at our bbq yesterday, and people kept going back for seconds and thirds even skipping over the bbq! That was a surprise.

    I didn't have any bacon on hand, so omitted that item, but the dish was still fantastic.

    I added a little extra red pepper and it gave the greens a delicious kick.

    Okay, I am trying to eat healthier, and these collard greens were super yummy. The maple syrup took away the tartness that can make collard greens less than appealing. Thanks, Ellie.

    This is my first time making collard greens as well, had them delivered in my fresh produce box. Everything was great about this, it had a nice distinct flavor. Didn't even need the full 30 minutes simmering, tasted perfect at 15. Will definitely make again.

    I have never had collard greens before (only seen them on TV but finally saw them in my local grocery store and had to try them. I splurged and used 4 slices of regular bacon instead of back bacon, and also used a shallot rather than a small onion, and it was delish! The contrast of the cider vinegar and maple syrup along with the subtle heat of the red pepper flakes was lovely. Definitely recommend!
