Method:

vegan_soul_food_recipe_collard_greens_picWarm oil in large sauce pan over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until slightly translucent and golden brown. Mix in greens then add water till about three quarters from the top of the greens. You’ll know you’re there when you press down on the greens and the water comes up a bit.

Add sugar, liquid smoke, molasses, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper, cover, and cook about30–40 minutes.

Now add another tablespoon or two of coconut palm sugar and stir it all up. If you like, you can cook another 15 or so minutes. Once finished cooking, plate it up, top with raw hemp seeds, and enjoy!
