Ingredients
- 1 large bunch collard greens (about 7 large leaves)
- 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil
- ⅛ teaspoon pink Himalayan or sea salt
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger root
- 1 teaspoon Bragg’s liquid aminos or coconut aminos (use ½ teaspoon for lower sodium)
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- One scoop Organixx Clean Sourced Collagens powder (omit for vegan option)
- Cayenne pepper (⅛ teaspoon or to taste)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Slice out the middle hard stem of your collard greens. Stack the leaves on top of each other. Roll the leaves up together into one large roll. With a knife, slice thinly. Chop up a few more times until you have easy-to-eat-sized pieces.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add in the oil. Heat oil until hot, then add in sliced greens and sprinkle with salt. Cook the greens for about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally (or until desired doneness).
- Add in the grated ginger, liquid aminos, sesame oil, and collagens powder if using. Stir to coat. Garnish with sesame seeds. Serve up warm and enjoy!

Ingredient Highlights
The high beta-carotene content of cayenne pepper has been found to increase immunity and help reduce symptoms in asthma.
Also known as marrow-stem kale, collard greens are an often overlooked nutritional treasure, believed to possibly improve sleep and mood, support digestive tract health, and promote healthy hair and skin.
Ginger is a potent aromatic herb and a good natural source of vitamin C, magnesium, potassium, copper, and manganese. It has been used for thousands of years in Asia to treat stomach ache, diarrhea, and nausea.
Liquid aminos are made from soybeans, while coconut aminos are made from coconut. They are most often used as healthier alternatives to soy or tamari sauce as they are MSG-free as well as gluten-free.
Pure olive oil is high in nutrients including vitamins D, E, K, and A as well as omega-3 fatty acids. For the highest quality, look for organic extra virgin olive oil in dark glass bottles or tins that have an expiry date.
