1
Wash and Prepare the Greens
Rinse the collard greens under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Remove the tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
2
Prep the Aromatics
Mince the garlic cloves and chop the onion into small pieces.

3
Sauté the Aromatics
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
4
Add the Collard Greens
Add the chopped collard greens to the pot, stirring to combine with the sautéed garlic and onion.
5
Add the Liquid and Seasonings
Pour in the vegetable broth, and add salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to combine.
6
Simmer
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the greens simmer for about 30 minutes, or until tender.
7
Finish with Vinegar
Once the collard greens are tender, stir in the apple cider vinegar. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
