Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup prepared (Sweet Baby Rays) barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 4 cups chopped collard greens, (about 10 ounces), tough stems removed (0r Spinach)
  • 9 ounces cooked chicken sausage links, (about 3 links), halved lengthwise and sliced
  • 2 15-ounce cans great northern or navy beans, rinsed

Directions

  1. Whisk barbecue sauce, water, tomato paste, molasses, salt and pepper in a medium bowl.

  2. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and collard greens and cook, stirring occasionally, until the collards are wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sausage and cook, stirring, until beginning to brown, about 3 minutes more.

  3. Reduce heat to medium-low; add beans and the sauce mixture to the pan. Gently stir to combine, cover and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
