The Arkansas in her

Savannah likes collard greens! She calls them "spinach."

I just call them greens because I had the feeling the word "collard" might keep her from trying them. I know anything with the word "bean" attached to it is an atomatic turnoff.

I boil them for ten minutes then cook in a skillet with a little olive oil, salt and garlic. I'd love a little lemon juice, but when I tried that with spinach, she wouldn't have it. I know what she'd think of the traditional vinegar and hot sauce in the collards.

This makes four green things she'll eat, including brocolli and cucumber. I need to find out how to cook kale.
