I was looking for the healthiest, most affordable way to cook collards. I found that, plus my new favorite in the taste department! These are so good that I had the extra for breakfast today. Even people who eat collards solely for the mighty greens' nutritional mojo find that the lime juice masks the bitterness and the peanut butter adds a silky richness. One serving of Steamed Collards with Lime-Peanut Sauce contains seven grams of protein, no cholesterol, and plenty of vitamins, calcium, iron, and fiber.

Serve your friends and family Steamed Collards with Lime-Peanut Sauce on New Year's Day. Tradition holds that the more greens you eat on January 1st, the more folding money you'll get in the coming year. You'll appreciate the quick cooking time, everyone will enjoy the taste, and no one will miss the sulfurous smell of overcooked collards.
