Mediterranean Collard Greens

1 bunch collard greens, chopped (about 8 cups)

1 Tbs. lemon juice

1 tsp. soy sauce

1 medium cloves garlic, pressed

Extra virgin olive oil, to taste

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Press garlic and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes; bring lightly salted water to a boil in a steamer with a tight fitting lid.  Separate the stems from the greens by folding in half and cutting along side of the stem, or pulling out stem.  Roughly chop the greens.  Add collard greens to steamer basket and steam covered for about 5 minutes, or until tender.  Toss with rest of ingredients and place on a plate and cut more finely before serving.  15 minutes preparation time.  Makes 4 servings.
