*I used frozen because it was on sale in addition to after bespeak the Twitterverse for positive experiences.
My thoughts:
This wintertime has been therefore freakish. One twenty-four threescore minutes menstruum it is sleeting in addition to snowing in addition to freezing raining in addition to the adjacent it is threescore in addition to sunny. It makes it hard to repast plan. One twenty-four threescore minutes menstruum I experience similar soups in addition to stews in addition to the next, I desire to interruption out the grill in addition to smoker.

I similar collards but they require a fleck of attempt to use; they are ofttimes gritty in addition to and accept a thick view stem that needs to live on removed. They are too sold inwards such large quantities, nosotros terminate upward eating them for days afterwards. So when I spied a pocketbook frozen, chopped collards, I tossed them inwards the cart. I didn't intend (and nonetheless don't) they'd live on proficient used inwards the traditional, long cooked way(similar to how I made turnip greens) but they are perfect to adding to dishes where you lot demand merely a fleck of greens. They're a peachy option to spinach inwards therefore many things, including this soup. Full of hardy ingredients similar kamut (aka, Khorasan wheat) in addition to rootage vegetables, this soup is perfect for dinner on a cold, blustery night.

As an aside, collards are considered an "ancient green" merely every bit kamut is an "ancient grain" therefore all the to a greater extent than argue to distich the 2 together.
