Recipes: Collards with Smoked Turkey

Ingredients

• 4 lb collard greens
• 1/4 lb smoked turkey breast
• 3 cups reduced-sodium, educed-fat chicken broth
• 2 medium onions, chopped
• 3 whole garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tsp red pepper flakes
• 1 tsp pepper

Directions

Wash and cut the collard greens and place them in a large stockpot. Add the remaining ingredients and enough water to cover.

Cook until tender, stirring occasionally, about 3 1/2 hours. The flavors will blend even more if you let the greens sit for a bit after cooking.
