Side dish - Southern collard greens recipe vegetarian
These southern collard greens are braised low and slow in broth with tons of spices, liquid smoke and brown sugar! It is full of the nutrients and flavor that have leached out of the greens during cooking, and makes a very full-bodied and rich broth you can use as a replacement for water when making rice (my favorite), as the base for soups or stews, or in any other savory dish that requires broth or water.

- Season broth with smoked salt and red pepper flakes.
- Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed. Make sure it’s to your liking because this is how your greens will taste.
- Bring to a simmer and reduce heat.

Easy Vegetarian Collard Greens

This is a wonderful way to make delicious, tender, vegan collard greens. The smoked sweet paprika in these greens imparts a wonderful smoky flavor without the traditional but decidedly non-kosher and non-vegetarian smoked ham hock. Make sure the paprika you buy is smoked, as the regular kind won't give you that smoky flavor. Whatever you do, don't discard the pot liquor! It is full of the nutrients and flavor that have leached out of the greens during cooking, and makes a very full-bodied and rich broth you can use as a replacement for water when making rice (my favorite), as the base for soups or stews, or in any other savory dish that requires broth or water.
