5 from 1 rating

Ingredients
 

  • 1 bunch collard greens
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • 2 jalapeños, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 10 ounce can tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
  • 1 15 ounce can black eyed peas, drained
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup sliced or shredded ham
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large deep skillet to medium heat and add the olive oil, garlic and onion. Sauté until garlic is fragrant, add the sliced collard green leaves (you may need to add a handful at a time until they cook down as not to overcrowd your pan)
  • Cook greens, stirring occasionally until they are wilted.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and cook until the broth begins to simmer.
  • Transfer to a slow cooker and cook on low for at least 4 hours. The greens can be cooked longer than 4 hours- I tend to think greens taste better the longer they cook.
