• 1 large onion yellow, white, or red
• 1 lb smoked bacon chopped
• 1 1/2 cup water
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 2 tsp seasoning salt

Instructions

• Make sure that you wash the cabbage & collard greens before anything else. Then cut and slice.
• Place a large pot over medium high heat, then toss in the sliced bacon.
• Cook the bacon until it browns a bit, then toss in the onions, and the red bell peppers.
• Once the onions and bell peppers start to soften, start adding in the sliced cabbage, and collard greens.
• Fold the ingredients, and once all the cabbage and collards are in the pot, toss in the minced garlic.
• Pour 1 1/2 cup water, then sprinkle in some seasoning salt, and black pepper. Give everything a nice stir.
• Reduce the heat to medium, and cook for about 45 or until cabbage and collard greens are nice and tender
