Ingredients:

  • 1 pound collard greens, chopped
  • Optional: ½ red onion, sliced
  • For Mediterranean dressing:
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 medium clove garlic, pressed or chopped
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1½ tablespoons sunflower seeds

Optional for dressing:

  • 6 kalamata olives, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
  • 5 drops tamari or soy sauce
  • Dash cayenne pepper

Fill steamer with two inches of water. While steam builds, slice collard greens leaves into ½-inch slices and cut again crosswise. Cut stems into ¼-inch slices. Steam collard greens, and onion slices if desired, for no more than 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Toss greens with remaining ingredients and any optional ones while greens are hot. The dressing doesn’t need to be made separately. You can mix it in with the greens.
