Sweet and Sour Collard Greens

OMG!!! These are so delicious. Of course they are--they have bacon. Because they are a superfoody, green leafy vegetable, they kind need the flavor, but overall they are still pretty healthy.

Ingredients:
  • 4 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. white flour
  • 1/3 c. water
  • 2 Tbsp. white vinegar
  • 3 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. black pepper
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 c. collard greens, chopped with stems removed
Instructions:
  1. Fry the bacon in a large frying pan, until crisp. Remove from pan, cover and set aside. Do not drain the bacon grease from the pan.
  2. Combine the water, vinegar, brown sugar, pepper and salt and set aside.
  3. On medium heat, whisk the flour into the bacon grease. Add the liquid mixture
  4. Reduce heat to low and add the greens a handful at a time. Cover and steam for about 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently.
  5. Serve with crumbled bacon on top.
