Oh man this looks delicious and so in season right now! I am not a fan of mayo, but a little greek yogurt will do the trick in its place. Can't wait to try it!
I hope you enjoy it Missy!
Can you use turnip greens instead of collards?
You should be able to, however I have not tried that myself. As long as you have greens and a savory flavor, you should be fine.
I just love the collards in your recipe! Hope you are having a great week and thanks so much for sharing your awesome post with us at Full Plate Thursday. We look forward to seeing you again real soon!

Just made this using your recipe after having collard dip on my last trip to the South. We loved it. We do mixed greens for Christmas, so I sautéed fresh collards and used leftover duck instead of bacon. It turned out pretty good. I was concerned that the collards might be bitter, but the flavor balance was perfect. I will definitely make this again.
Sandra,
Your version of the recipe sounds delicious with the duck. I’m so glad you tried this dip and enjoyed it. Collards are a great vegetable to add into many dishes where possible. Happy new year.
Julia
