    For the collards use a tablespoon of olive oil, then once you've let them sautee/cook down for a few minutes, add your liquid and add a tablespoon or two of balsamic vinegar then let cook down. I love southern style greens but this is a yummy change too. But if you decide to use bacon remember you are making more than one serving of greens and a little bacon will go a long way for a few calories.

    I used chicken stock with water and 3 tbsp of olive oil mixing in some minced garlic. when it boiled I put in a half a tsp of sugar and boiled until tender. it was wonderful and melted in my mouth. I will do this again for sure
