Collard greens
YOU DO NOT LEAVE OR PASS THROUGH THE SOUTHERN U.S. without having collard greens (preferably with vinegar) and a piece of corn bread. If you didn’t, start planning your return now, because you missed one of the true specialties of southern cooking.
Half a cup of collards has just 25 calories and is a good source of fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and folate. Like all cruciferous vegetables, collards contain phytochemicals that may prevent cancer.
If you want to increase your calcium intake, collards are one of the best plant-based sources
