Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil $0.22
  • 1 onion $0.38, medium
  • 2 cloves garlic $0.14
  • 12 oz beer $1.17
  • 1 bouillon cube $0.23, xlg, makes 2 cups
  • 2 cups water $0.00
  • 1 lb collard greens $1.93, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar $0.02
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes $0.05
  • black pepper $0.05, cracked, to taste

Instructions

  1. Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Cook both in a large pot with olive oil over medium heat until softened.
  2. If you are using fresh collard greens, they will need to be washed, stems removed and cut into 2 inch pieces. I used pre-washed and chopped, bagged collard greens (the fresh bunches didn’t look so hot that day).
  3. Add the beer, bouillon cube, water, collard greens, brown sugar, red pepper flakes and black pepper to the pot. Place a lid on top and allow the pot to come to a boil.
  4. Once the pot begins to boil, the collards will have wilted enough to give it all a stir without everything spilling out. Stir everything up good then place the lid back on top, reduce the heat to low and let simmer until the collards are to the desired tenderness (I simmered for two hours). Stir every 15 minutes or so.
