Vegan Collard Greens Recipe

Get ready to channel your inner culinary wizard! This recipe makes collard greens so good; your grandma will reconsider her secret recipes. Let’s get those greens a-glimmering!

A delicious plate of Vegan Collard Greens ### Ingredients:

1 pound collard greens, washed and chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil (or your preferred liquid sunshine)
1 onion, diced (and don’t cry too much while cutting)
4 cloves garlic, minced (vampire repelling power-up!)
2 cups vegetable broth (the water of life for our greens)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (the tangy magic elixir)
Salt and pepper to taste (your flavor enhancers)
Red pepper flakes (optional, if you want to spice up your life)

Instructions:

First, let’s get those greens! Rinse your collard greens thoroughly to ensure no pesky dirt guests crash your dinner party. Chop them into manageable pieces. We want them to be bite-sized and fabulous!
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and let them sizzle until they begin to soften. This is basically onion magic—aromas will fill the air and good vibes will start flowing!
Next up, toss in that minced garlic and let it cook for a minute. We’re not suggesting a dance party, but if the mood strikes you, we won’t stop you!
Time for the stars of the show! Add your chopped collard greens to the pot and stir well. They will shrink down, so don’t stress—it’s like a green spa day!
Pour in the vegetable broth and apple cider vinegar, sprinkling in salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Stir it up and get ready for some serious flavor action!
Bring everything to a boil before reducing the heat to a gentle simmer. Cover the pot and let the collards cook for about 30-45 minutes, or until they reach a tender, melt-in-your-mouth state that’ll make you swoon.
Once done, taste test and adjust the seasoning to your liking—because not all heroes wear capes, some just season their food perfectly!

Serve these vibrant Vegan Collard Greens warm as a main dish, sidekick to your other dishes, or even straight from the pot (we promise we won’t judge). Enjoy your healthy endeavor into the world of greens and remember—the best part is that you made it yourself! Happy cooking!
