ingredients
- 2 (793.78 g) box of frozen collard greens
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 green pepper, chopped
- 1 red pepper, chopped
- 59.16 ml butter or 59.16 ml margarine
- 5 slice bacon, chopped
- salt
- black pepper
- basil
- oregano
directions
- Cook bacon in heavy skillet until crisp (use medium heat). (Sometimes the bacon will stick together; you must break it up).
- Add butter, cook until melted.
- Add veggies, stir.
- Add your seasonings.
- Add frozen greens - no water is necessary; the ice on the greens will melt into water. Cover pot with lid. In about ten minutes, the greens should be soft.
- Then stir them, mixing them up with the onions, peppers and bacon. Cover again, stirring periodically for approximately 20 minutes, or until greens are dark and soft.
- Serve hot.
- If you like fresh greens, that's fine. Just make sure to add a 1/4 cup of water right after you add the peppers and onions.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in Philadelphia, PA. I am single and prefer it that way. I'm currently unemployed, but looking actively for work as a marketing administrator. I do enjoy cooking for friends, but my family finds my tastes too exotic for them. I am a Navy veteran and have traveled extensively throughout Asia and lived in California for seven years. I'm constantly changing my profile because I am never satisfied with it.
