  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 onion finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Add butter into a large skillet on the stove and let melt. Add collard greens, onion, and garlic once butter is melted.

  • Cut potatoes into your thin slices while you wait.
  • Butter a medium sized baking dish (not quite as big as a 9x13).
