Collard Greens
Collard greens are a nutrient-dense leafy vegetable belonging to the Brassica family, closely related to kale and cabbage. Their broad, dark green leaves have a sturdy texture that softens through slow-cooking methods like braising or stewing, often prepared with smoked meats in traditional Southern U.S. cuisine. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, they provide substantial calcium and fiber while remaining low in calories, making them ideal for heart-healthy and weight-conscious diets.
