Gary's Savory Turnip Greens
"I used to hate turnip greens until I tried my DH's recipe...This is it! It's really good, and I can honestly say that even the kids eat this one. It's a Must Try, honestly...Sounds odd, but the flavors really mix together to taste addicting! I've even been known to add 2 strips of bacon crumbled and the grease as well..."

Wow, these are really good! Whenever I make greens I always feel they come out just mushy-gross, but these had great flavor. Didn't have savory, but I garnished this fresh thyme. I also used fresh greens. Served with breaded cod fillets (from a box) and roasted turnips/shallots/garlic. -
Delish! I, also, used fresh greens and didn't measure well on the seasonings. Maybe put a few too much vinegar by not measuring, but my hubby and I still LOVED it. The kids liked the flavor but not the "spicey" turnip greens (granted they are 2 & 4). I added the bacon and think that put it over the top as a scrumptious side dish.

Made this with fresh greens and fresh savory and didn't find the seasonings at all overwhelming. In fact, I'm going to double them (at least) next time. I liked it best warm and Dh preferred it straight from the frig. -

Hi! My name is Stacy, and I'm a single Mom who works full-time with 4 kids ranging from ages 9 to 21, a brand new granddaughter named Faith, and a cat named Pubert (we call him Pube) who is also my kid... That's his photo as my icon. Oh, and a new kitten that the kids named "KeeKee" but who I call Little Kitteh. I love them with all my heart! Even though I don't have my parents anymore, their presence is always felt and their love has resonated in my life, even after all this time. You'll find a lot of my posted recipes that refer to "Jolean" --- and that's my Mom. :) I sure do miss her...
I love music, especially 70's music, cats, incense & lavalights, candles, and I love to play guitar. I've been called an old "hippie chick," and I don't mind that label in the least. I also love to try other people's recipes and find ones that remind me of my Mother, and those precious memories that I had growing up in a household with such a wonderfully comforting cook...I work full-time in a real estate office as an office administrator.
I came to this site looking for recipes that were tried and true. I stayed at this site because I found people who were kind, loving, caring and shared the same interest that I do --- food and cooking. I've saved a lifetime of recipes and learned so much about cooking and ingredients that I actually feel proud of my cooking. I bet my Mom looks down on me with pride every time I cook a new recipe from RecipeZaar, and I bet my Dad cracks up every time he sees me photographing what I've cooked! My daughters have actually gotten into the act, too, and are quite versed in searching for recipes and answers here on Zaar. Makes me proud to be their Mom.
RecipeZaar isn't just a "website." It's a lifestyle. And some of the friends I've made here are LIFELONG friends to me --- and in my estimation, those types of people are a rare thing to find in this world. :)
P.S. Pube says, "Hello everybody!" ;)
