Spicy Collards with Red Peppers

I developed this recipe when I was tasked to create two New Year’s dishes for Charleston Magazine. I wanted to celebrate dishes African Americans traditionally eat for the New Year, Collard Greens and Hoppin’ John. For the greens I did not move too far away from traditional recipes, however, I added red pepper to brighten up the dish and omitted the vinegar that is used in some recipes.
