Organic Collards

Fresh Collard Greens provide an enormous amount of nutrition while possessing little to no calories, and no cholesterol. With a huge source of soluble fiber and Vitamin C, and multiple nutrients with anticancer properties, one serving of Collard Greens contains way more than your daily allotment of Vitamin K and A, and its also a great source of folate, manganese, calcium and tryptophan (an amino acids that occurs in proteins). 
Collards can be juiced, steamed & sautéed, and even eaten raw. In the stores, look for fresh, bright, crispy leaves with stout stalk, and try to void those with yellow discolored, sunken leaves.
