We made this Creamed Collards and Broccoli Pizza specially for those women who unironically call themselves goddesses, run in a #GoddessGang, and can manifest a brand new $60K car whenever they feel like it. We see you, girl. There’s nothing more spiritual than earthly riches. So let us spoil you with a pizza topped primarily with earthly veggies. You deserve it.

Creamed Collards and Broccoli Pizza

Creamed Collards

  1. In large pan over medium-high heat, cook bacon until desired doneness. Remove bacon from pan and set aside while retaining bacon grease in pan. Add shallots and cook until tender. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in flour and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add wine and bring to simmer, then reduce by half. Stir in milk, heavy cream, and crushed red pepper. Bring to simmer and continue simmering until thickened. Salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm until ready to add to collards.
  2. In a large pot over medium-high heat, melt remaining 3 Tbsp butter. Add collards and cook stirring constantly until tender but still bright green, about 5 minutes. Stir in cream mixture, lower heat to low, then cover and let simmer for another 5-10 minutes or until collards are cooked through. Stir in back. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
