collard greens with rice or lentils
(3 ratings)
This has been a family favorite for many years made with rice. Now, we're eating 'Slow Carb' and substitute red lentils for the rice and still love it! Make it without the sausage for a side dish or with the sausage for a main dish. Great on a cold night with little time to cook!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
This collard greens recipe is delicious and so easy! Not only does this make a great New Year's Day recipe, it will be a recipe you'll want to make year round. Beef broth adds a great savory flavor to the rice and collard greens. Crushed red pepper brings just a bit of heat. We loved the smoked sausage addition to make this a main dish. Super yummy!
