Never made collard greens--These were great! My husband and I layered brown rice, greens and black-eyed peas. I can't wait to make these again. Used fresh greens and cleaned them the way Paula told me to.

Delicious! This recipe was one of the best I have ever had. I substituted chicken stock for water and used applewood smoked bacon. At first I thought the butter might be unnecessary - but the smell of bacon/butter/and onion that filled my kitchen totally changed my mind.
