WALDINE VAN GEFFEN VGHC42A
1 cup Whipping cream
4 cup Chicken broth, divide
1 cup Stoneground grits
One fourth cup Milk (up To 1/2)
1 pound Fresh collard greens
One fourth cup Butter or margarine
1 cup Parmesan, grate (up To
11/2)
One fourth teaspoon Fresh ground pepper (up To
1/2)
Cooked bacon or ham; cube,

Combine whipping cream and 3 cup broth in a large pan. Bring to a boil;
gradually stir in grits. Cover over medium heat until mixture returns to a
boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring
frequently. Gradually add milk, if necessary, for desired consistency.
Remove and discard the stems and any discolored spots from greens. Wash
greens thoroughly, drain and cut into 1/2" strips. Combine greens and
remaining 1 cup broth in a large skillet; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat
and simmer 5 minutes or until greens are tender. Drain and plunge into ice
water to stop the cooking process. Drain well on paper towels. Add butter,
cheese and pepper to grits, stirring until butter and cheese melt. Stir in
greens. Cook, stirring constantly, until thoroughly heated. Garnish with
bacon or ham. Source: Southern Living.
