- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 tsp. salt

Directions
Melt butter in a skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, cook until fragrant, then add flour and cook until bubbly.
Slowly add heavy cream to the skillet, whisking until combined. Add milk, salt, and pepper. Cook until the mixture begins to boil and thicken. Stir in collards, reduce heat, and simmer until collards are tender. Add a little broth or water to the collards if needed. Stir in Parmesan cheese and serve warm.
