These greens were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I thought the smokiness was a bit overpowering. Next time I'll try using less smoked paprika.

I'm not a huge fan of collard greens, but these were surprisingly good. The smokiness really added a new dimension to the flavor.
