Awesome Collard Greens

I love this greens recipe. It was posted by HollyQ at Recipezaar.com (good site!). You don't have to use collards- I often use kale instead. It is so tasty, really easy to prepare, and lowfat, too!


Awesome Collard Greens Recipe
1 lb collard greens (or 1/2 collards, 1/2 kale)
1 onion, chopped
1/2 cup prepared salsa or 1 chopped tomato
2-4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon salt, to taste
hot sauce, to taste

Wash greens in a colander.
Chop into bite-sized pieces.
Throw all ingredients into a large pot and cover.
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, the reduce heat and simmer.
Greens are done when they have shrunk down and are cooked through,
usually about a half hour, but you can let it simmer much longer.
Serve with its liquid.
