As part of my intention to do more meal planning, I'm also attempting to take advantage of the weekly supermarket sales and to diversify the foods that we eat. Country-style pork ribs were on sale this week so the meal ended up being pretty economical considering the amount of food we ended up with. Yay!
Today I made Garlicky Pork Ribs with Greens, and I think this was the first time I cooked collard greens. Instead of buying them by the bunch, I purchased two one-pound bags of the prepped greens and that was really easy to use. The greens do wilt down considerably, but it still makes a lot of vegetables. Luckily, since the kids also like kale, they didn't have any qualms about eating the greens.
[It turns out two pounds of collard greens takes up a lot of room in the roasting pan!]
This is a good dish to make when you have company because it's pretty easy to make, the ingredients aren't hard to come by, and it makes a lot of food.
