10 medium sized collard leaves- steamed
1 1/2 cups cooked wild grain rice
1 1/2 cups cooked cannellini beans
1 cup chopped red pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup chopped zucchini
3 T tomato paste...
1 T fresh oregano
1 T fresh parsley
salt & pepper to taste
2 cups tomato sauce

Steam the collard leaves and set aside to cool. Sauté pepper, onion, garlic, zucchini and herbs in about 2-3 T of water. Once they are translucent, turn off heat and add tomato paste. Mix in well with the rice and beans. Divide the mixture evenly into each of the collards, folding the leaf over the mixture and placing in a casserole dish. Once all 10 pieces are in the dish, pour sauce over the stuffed collards and bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Serve with grated cheese and enjoy!
