Collard greens are one of my favorite vegetables because they are packed with nutrition, they are easy to use, and they taste great. Collard greens are a good source of protein, fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B6, calcium, iron, and magnesium. This recipe combines the nutritious powerhouse of collard greens with other healthy vegetables to create a mouthwatering vitamin explosion. Collard greens are a healthy alternative to flour tortilla shells because they are not processed and they do not contain any refined starches.
