INSTRUCTIONS:
- In a large skillet, heat the water and bouillon over medium heat. Add the greens in batches so the greens in the pan have cooked down enough to add more.

- Add the juice, liquid smoke, and balsamic vinegar. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed. Also add salt, if needed. (If your bouillon has salt, you may not need to add any.)
