This is a great recipe to serve for New Year's Day. I think it's from Country Living.
Ingredients:
6 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch strips
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups onions, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1 cup carrot, chopped
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 clove(s) garlic, minced
4 cups collard greens, chopped and rinsed
3 1/4 cups cooked black-eyed peas
Directions:
1. 1. Cook the bacon in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until browned. Transfer to paper towels to drain and pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon fat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and melt . Add the onion, celery, and carrots, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and cook until vegetables are just tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
2. 2. Place 1 tablespoon butter and the garlic in another large saucepan over medium-high heat. Once the garlic is cooked through, add the collard greens and cook them until they are just tender - about 5 minutes.
3. 3. Stir in the peas, bacon, and vegetables and warm through. Season with remaining salt and pepper and serve immediately.
