It's nice to be able to cook with hubby! My hubby and I clean collard greens together. Then he cooks them since he has some type of secret ingredient......I think he puts his foot in it!! LOL Jett


Aww, how romantic! You are one lucky lady *sigh* My hubby can't tell a strainer from a slotted spoon - and he likes it that way lol Great recipe, thanks for sharing.
