Collard Harvest

We had a bumper crop of collard greens this year in the garden. Even our dog was eating them! Collards are super nutritious- high in vitamin A, vitamin K, and Folate. We use them as wraps for bread-less sandwiches (lightly steam them after removing the stem), stir fried with bacon, julienned in salads or as a noodle replacement. We eat a lot of soups in the winter time and I'm happy to have a supply of greens in the freezer. Pictured is julienned collards in green papaya salad.
