I love turnip and collard greens! Jen, on the other hand, is not a big fan, but I cook a big pot for me and can almost eat the whole pot in one meal. You can use this recipe with any of your favorite greens.

Turnip Greens:

Turnip Greens

1 bag of turnip greens

1 package of prosciutto

1 white onion – diced

1 tomato – diced

2 cups of chicken broth

Take the prosciutto, cut into strips and put into a large pot over medium heat.

Proscitto in pot

Let the prosciutto cook down for about 5 minutes. Now, take the diced white onion and add it to the pot. You will want to cook the onion down to it is almost soft which is about 10 minutes.

Take a bag of turnips greens, and add the diced tomatoes to the pot with chicken broth. I typically season with salt and pepper at this time and cover the pot. Reduce the heat to low and let the greens cook for 30 minutes.

This is another very simple recipe to make and is something I really enjoy eating. At least this past Sunday I was able to get Jen to try the greens again, but she still doesn’t like them (she doesn’t like bacon… I mean who doesn’t like bacon?). Here is my bowl of yummy greens:

I get back from NY tomorrow night and already miss cooking. I will feature another one of my favorite tool’s in the kitchen so check back.

Happy Cooking!
