Step 1
Start by cutting the collard greens. Just stack three leaves at a time and roll them like cigars. Cut them crosswise into very thin strips. Proceed with the rest of the leaves until all the collard greens are done. Reserve.
Step 2
In a heavy bottomed pot, add the peeled potatoes, the quartered onion, the minced cloves of garlic, the olive oil and the chicken broth. Bring it to a boil over high heat and then lower the heat to medium low and cook until the potatoes are tender and ready to be mashed (about 20 min).
Step 3
Mash the potatoes and bring them back to the pot.
Step 4
Using a hand blender, blend the soup until smooth. You can also use a regular blender and blend the soup in batches.
Step 5
Add the collard greens, stir, and keep cooking for 15 more minutes.
Step 6
In a large skillet, fry the bacon and the sausage until the bacon is browned.
Step 7
Add the bacon/sausage mixture to the soup and cook until the soup boils again.
Step 8
Season with salt and pepper.
Step 9
Serve hot with extra olive oil.
