  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/3 cup yellow onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup celery chopped
  • 1/4 cup carrot chopped
  • 1 tablespoon garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons caraway seeds

  • 2 cups collard greens stems removed and leaves chopped
  • 15- ounces canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • Parmesan cheese shredded, optional for serving

Instructions

  • Set a large pot over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add onion, celery, and carrots. Cook for 2 minutes, until softened slightly. Add the garlic, fennel, and black pepper; cook for an additional 30 seconds.
