Stir-fried Collard Greens

2022-07-27T12:57:35-04:00July 27th, 2022|Cooking With VT Fresh|

Collard greens have a taste somewhere between cabbage and kale; they are nutrient rich, containing ample amounts of vitamins A, K, B-6 and C, calcium, iron, and magnesium. This is the oldest leafy green of the Brassica family, dating back 2000 years! You can enjoy collard greens raw or cooked. Our recipe uses a quick stir-fry method with a play on Asian flavors with the use of sesame oil, red pepper flakes, soy sauce, and vinegar. This recipe makes a great side dish to any sausage or barbequed meat or if you are looking for a meatless alternative, Stir-fried Collard Greens add a great heartiness to any vegan dish!
