Turnip Green Soup

"A truly easy, healthy, delicious and satisfying Southern style soup. Make it for New Year's lunch and substitute black eyed peas for the northern beans and you have the perfect good luck meal..all of you Southerners know what I mean. Cooking time is approximate, the doneness of the greens determines when it's dinner time. I like it to cook a little over 30 minutes, some might prefer it to cook longer, don't cook it to death though. The turkey sausage will become dry. Serve with corn bread (made in a cast iron skillet...It's dinner time y'all!)"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am the married mother of two children. One has special needs, so the family is gluten free. Lucky for me I love to cook and am managing to experiment. I have excellent gluten-full as well as gluten-free recipes. I just love to take a recipe and twiddle around with it until it suits me. My work is in marketing my husbands physical therapy clinic. Lunches are chiefly catered by me and that has been (thankfully) successful.
