- This is an original recipe made with odds and ends in the fridge and cupboard that I threw together last night. It was a huge hit and super easy to make so I thought I’d share.
- INGREDIENTS
- 1 yellow onion sliced
- 2-3 cloves of garlic minced
- Large bunch of greens (I used collards) sliced
- 1 pound pork sausage
- 1 15 oz can diced tomatoes
- 1 15 oz can canelloni beans
- Salt and pepper to taste
Heat a skillet over medium high and brown your sausage. Slice in half inch slices and cook the slices another 2 minutes then set aside. In the oil from the sausage cook the onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the collard greens and put a lid on the pan for 2-3 minutes until the greens start to wilt. Add the garlic and a teaspoon of salt (to taste) and cook another 3-4 minutes until the greens have all wilted but are not quite fully cooked.
Strain the beans and diced tomatoes and add to the pan with the sliced sausage. Turn down the heat, cover, and simmer for 5-10 minutes. (I’m a fan of crunchy greens but if you like things soft you may need to simmer longer. Be sure to taste as you cook- it’s the only real way to see if things are done!)
Serve over rice. Enjoy!
