Vegetarian Collard Greens

Vegetarian Collard Greens

Collards and other greens are sweeter after a freeze, so leave those long tough leaves on the plant until after a cold shock and they’ll be more palatable. I recommend using a 12-inch cast-iron frying pan for this dish. Instead of bacon, this recipe calls for toasted sourdough, which adds a similar fatty, chewy, crispy texture and smoky flavor. Of course, you can also just use bacon.

Kim’s Easy, Cheesy “It’s Okay” Penne Casserole with Arugula, Leek, Mushroom and Crunchy Bread Topping

“This is a good go-to dish for a busy family,” says Kim Lane. “Whether you deliver it unbaked, or bake it before delivery, it holds up well and is delicious.” Lane adds that if you’re delivering to a new mother, be sure to ask if garlic or leeks are an issue for her—you can easily omit or substitute other vegetables. In addition, a variety of cooked meats can be added for extra protein—add them to the mix just before adding the sauce.
