Creamed Collard Greens

Collard greens remind me of kale in that I prefer them cooked rather than raw.
What? I can’t help it. That’s not to say I won’t eat them raw, but trust me when I say they’re a little better with bacon on top. I know you understand.

Ingredients:

• 1 bunch collard greens
• 3 tbsp olive oil

• 3 tbsp coconut flour
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder

How To Make It:

2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over stovetop.

3. Add coconut milk and flour. Stir. Add collard greens and simmer heat.

4. Sprinkle with garlic powder and salt and allow time for leaves to soften.

6. Remove from heat and enjoy with a savory entrée (we like it with Almond Crusted Chicken).
