Vegetarian Collard Greens
recipe by: Heather Stewart

Ingredients:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
1 small onion (chopped)
2 garlic cloves (diced)
1 bunch of collard greens (chopped)
3 cups of vegetable stock
*optional dash of red pepper flakes for spice

Method:
In a large pot over medium heat, heat oil and butter. Saute the onions until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Then add the garlic. Red pepper flakes are also added here if spicy flavor is desired. Cook another minute. Add collard greens and cook another minute. Add the vegetable stock, cover and bring to a simmer. Cook until greens are tender, about 40 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Extra Information:
This recipe is adapted from a version by the Food Network. A family favorite is to splash a bit of apple-cider vinegar on the greens for an extra zing.
