Steps:
- Use a knife to cut on either side of the large rib running up each collard green leaf. Remove it and discard it. You don't need to go all the way up the leaf, just remove the thickest part. For smaller leaves, just remove the stem. Stack about 4 to 5 leaves, roll them up, and cut into 1/2-inch strips. Repeat with remaining leaves.
- Cook bacon in a large pot over medium heat until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate.
- Add onion to bacon fat and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Add broth, vinegar, sugar, red pepper flakes, and tabasco sauce to pot. Stir to combine.
- Add collard greens and use tongs to turn and mix them until they reduce in size some. Cover, turn heat to low and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Before serving, sprinkle bacon on top and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Trim the thick stems and any wilted or yellow parts of the leaves form the collards. Cut the leaves crosswise into 1/2-inch strips. Wash them in plenty of cold water and drain them well. You will have about 12 cups of shredded leaves.
- Heat the oil in a large deep pan over medium-high heat. Add the red pepper flakes and stir until fragrant. Add the greens and cook, tossing and stirring, until they are coated with oil and pepper and wilted but maintain their vibrant color, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl, season with salt and serve.

TANGY 'N' SPICY VEGETARIAN COLLARD GREENS
These greens definitely have a kick. They're a perfect mixture of spice, veggies, herbs, and smoke, without the meat. They've got an edgy spice to them that authentic Caribbean and Mexican-cuisine lovers will enjoy. Even better, they're good for you - without the meat, without the fat, and without all the salt. For this recipe, use a regular eating spoon as your "teaspoon," and make all of your tablespoons slightly heaping (and slightly overflowing, for your tablespooned liquids). Enjoy!
