    Excellent. This is a versatile dish. Collard greens and a few other greens like chard were used, as well as the sweet potato with peel. Coconut water was used and the remaining ounces were a nice drink. This became a very filling meal; hours later and I am still satisfied. It should freeze well - 3/9/09
