These are my favorite it is good to be a southerner at times like these. I had a friend come down last year from New Years from NJ and she did not understand why we only had collard greens, mac and cheese, black eye peas and corn bread. I had to explain the traditions to her.<br />~ Babs ~https://www.blogger.com/profile/14447816893758898115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309470395783938361.post-47077365563559176682010-12-29T14:38:39.650-05:002010-12-29T14:38:39.650-05:00Elizabeth - thank you for demystifying collards fo...Elizabeth - thank you for demystifying collards for me. I've heard of them, of course, but never made any myself because I wasn't quite sure what to do. I knew I could probably use them like I do spinach, but I just never got around to trying. Now that I know what to do with them, I'm in!<br /><br />Great pictures. Cleo's right.

This year I thought I'd go with a spinach salad, and black-eyed peas in a vinaigrette. But I might get collards at the store today instead!<br /><br />~ KristaKristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11002970043709820868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309470395783938361.post-63455807593082262782010-12-29T07:13:17.651-05:002010-12-29T07:13:17.651-05:00OMG collards with vinegar and red pepper flakes!

I especially love the vinegar for brightness and red pepper flakes for zing!
