Author Notes
A wonderfully fresh raw salad that can be made in almost any season. Other herbs could be substituted for the parsley, other greens for the collards (although collards keep their shape very well), etc. Cooked beans, lentils and/or grains could be added for extra bulk to make a more complete meal.
