1 1/2 cups dried baby lima beans |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 cups vertically sliced red onion |
3 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1 cup diced smoked turkey breast (about 6 ounces) |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 bay leaf |
8 cups sliced collard greens (about 1/2 pound) |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |

Directions:
1. Sort and wash beans; place in a Dutch oven. Cover with water to 2 inches above beans; bring to a boil, and cook 20 minutes. Remove from heat; drain beans. 2. Preheat oven to 375°. 3. Heat oil in pan over medium-low heat. Add onion; sauté 10 minutes. Add beans, broth, and the next 5 ingredients (beans through bay leaf); bring to a boil.
