“Eat your collards! They’re good for you!” – Someone’s Mom, somewhere.

Thanks to their many nutrients, collard greens have been associated with cancer prevention, detox support, anti-inflammatory properties, heart health, and digestive support. And bonus, they are in your boxes this week! For more health details and simple recipe. And a not so healthy but delicious recipe.
