Start with 3 cups of collard greens, which are smoked turkey neck collard greens made fresh (not canned).

Take 1/2 block of softened cream cheese and place it in a mixing bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of sour cream to the cream cheese.

Add 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise to the mixture.

Grate about 1/2 wedge of Parmesan cheese and add it to the bowl.

Add about 1.5 cups of Mexican cheese to the mixture, adjusting based on desired cheesiness.

Chop and add 1/2 onion to the cheese mixture.

Stir all the ingredients together until well combined.

Transfer the dip mixture to a clean glass baking dish, optionally greased with butter or cooking spray.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Bake the dip in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes.

Top the dip with additional grated Mexican cheese and Parmesan cheese before baking.

Sprinkle a light layer of smoked paprika on top for garnish.

Cover the dish with aluminum foil for the first part of baking.

Remove the foil during the last 10 minutes to allow the top to become crusty.
