Black Eyed Pea & Collard Green Salad

Prep the collards: Remove stems and thinly slice the collard greens. Place them in a large bowl, add a pinch of salt, and massage for 1&ndash;2 minutes until they soften and turn a deeper green.
Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, honey, jerk seasoning, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Assemble the salad: Add the black-eyed peas, diced red bell pepper, sliced red onion, cucumber, and diced pepperoncinis to the collard greens.
Toss and combine: Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.
Let it sit: Allow the salad to sit for 10&ndash;15 minutes before serving to let the flavors come together.
