Mississippi, thought to be a great place to retire, is also a great place to live, raise a family, explore nature, start a business, get creative and enjoy life. One of my passions is Healthy Living; this Blog also emphasizes Food-Security in Mississippi and the importance of Local Grower’s Associations, Farmer’s Markets and Gardening.

Collards are my favorite greens.
Like most kids, I didn’t like them as a child, but I have learned a cooking method that leaves them crunchy and makes me crave them.
Rather than boiling my collards in lots of water and cooking them down to softness, I prefer cutting very fine and using only a tiny bit of water, garlic-infused oil, seasonings and sometimes I add crispy pieces of bacon. I quickly stir the greens so they cook evenly.
That’s some good eat’n...SMILE!!!
