Stir in beans until heated through; season with salt and black pepper. Cook’s Note I like this better the next day. If using collard greens, I recommend making it a day in advance to reduce their bitter taste.This recipe can be made with any type of greens (collards, turnip, kale, beet). When using collard greens, increase water to 1/2 cup and cooking time to 20 minutes (or until liquid has cooked off). I Made It Print 36 home cooks made it!
