Collard greens I am in the same boat as you...but from what I gather, a long - low and slow cook with some smoked meat is the key.
Fennel, not sure i would call that a green veg - as you are eating the bulb, which is nearly all white. Slice it on a mandolin very thin, add a bit of fresh orange juice, salt and olive oil - K.I.S.S. method wins here.
Chard/beet & turnip are great, sweet and can be cooked like spinach.
Kale.....you aint missing much! 🤣
Watercress is best eaten raw in salads. Same with Arugula (you can make a pesto from it which is great).
Endives are fantastic raw (a bit bitter) or broiled with a bit of butter and cheese/bread crumbs.
New foods are so much fun!
I have to confess to most of your s as well.
The exceptions would be fennel (try it in soups, it's amazing), kale (meh), and arugula, which I like occasionally in salads.
