Southern Turnip Greens

I found this recipe from Cooks.com. I made it for our Thanksgiving dinner--just to make something different for a change. I have to tell you, not only was it pretty easy to make (other than the stemming), it was also very tasty. Everyone loved it. I hope you will enjoy it, too. Show more

Directions

  1. Stem and wash fresh greens; place in water in a large kettle, bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook until tender. (Or use frozen turnip greens.).
  2. Grind the greens in a food processor and measure 2 cups for the recipe. (I had exactly 2 cups when I made this.).
  3. Combine the greens with salt and pepper, sugar, vinegar, horseradish, mayonnaise, soup, and eggs. Mix well.
  4. Put the mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish or 8x8-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle crumbs on top.
  5. Bake at 350F for 50 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle tops with cheese and bacon, and bake another 10 minutes, until cheese melts.
