Sautéed collard greens, brown rice, cornbread, or polenta all make great additions to round out this meal. However, my children's favorite side dish to serve with this soup is Homemade Oven Fries (or a mix of sweet potatoes and potatoes). This soup makes great leftovers, in fact, I think it tastes even better the next day!
