Add some of my spicy turnip greens to it.

Ingredients:

(1) TBSP minced garlic
(2) TBSP Worcesteshire sauce
(2) TBSP Soy (I used Tamari, low sodium)
(2) Turns olive oil (or bacon grease/butter/our choice)
(1) 32oz vegetable oR chicken broth (Swanson makes in a carton, or use cans)
(1) 16oz turnip greens (or mustard greens, both well cleaned/chopped, get pre-washed/bagged from store)
(1) 10z can Rotel tomatoes (any can stewed tomatoes with green chiles works)

NOTE: substitute the Rotel with Italian style stewed tomatoes if you don't like spicy food

Optional:
(1) TBSP Louisiana hot sauce (can substitute w/white wine vinegar for less spice)
- Bacon grease, bacon crumbles or or ham hocks/ham bone for flavor

Preparation:

Mix together broth and other liquid ingredients. Saute your garlic till brown with butter/grease/olive oil. When garlic is browned, add turnip greens and the broth mix and reduce to medium heat, stirring every couple of minutes until greens soften to the level of the broth. Reduce to low heat and cover, simmering until greens are soft (usually 60-90 minutes @ low heat, simmering). Salt to taste.

Can I get canned taco soup somewhere?I don`t care what`s in it.Just want it easy.Better yet,cup-o-taco soup?I wouldn`t want to wash a bowl.

krue · 09-23-2007, 11:11 PM

Dang Tim, wouldn't want you to hurt yourself with the can opener.

72BlckButy · 09-28-2007, 02:17 PM

A lady I work with has brought this in many times, and it is really good. She has also brought in White Chili (it uses chicken) Thanks for the receipe.

**special-K** · 09-29-2007, 03:07 PM

I made it last night.Just finished another bowl.I used onr packet of the "hot" taco seasoning,the beans were chili beans(pinto,kidney,and uh...)I added garlic,the whole kernal corn was Mexican-style,and more like 2.5# of ground beef because of how it was packaged.I also added some Texas-style chili powder,more cummin,and some of the red cap Adobo.That stuff is great!!!

BACKYARD88 · 01-27-2008, 02:12 AM

I made some of this the other night. Had to fight the urge for a third bowl. Everyone at Missy's work is eating the left overs right now. Very good stuff!

Jerry Jones · 01-27-2008, 02:16 AM

Funny that you brought this back, my wife just asked me to make it again for this weekend.

jkaylor68gmc · 01-27-2008, 03:43 AM

Jerry Jones · 01-27-2008, 04:18 AM

Jerry Jones · 01-27-2008, 06:46 AM

Got mine on the stove right now, I find like chili or spaghetti, this is even better the day after. So, we are going to have it tomarrow.

BACKYARD88 · 01-27-2008, 07:23 AM

I've been eating it for a couple days now, gets better every time

Jerry Jones · 01-29-2008, 04:49 AM

Indian113 · 10-13-2010, 07:58 PM

Thanks Liz,I have to try it sounds good

BACKYARD88 · 11-11-2010, 05:45 PM

I think the last time I posted in this thread (2008) was the last time I made some. Looks like it's time for some more!

MalibuSSwagon · 11-11-2010, 06:24 PM

Oh I am making this for lunch Saturday.

**special-K** · 12-04-2010, 02:03 PM

I used a pound of ground chicken instead this time (about the 6th time now) and it was great.I used mexican Corn for the yellow and Chipolte White Corn for the...uh white.Got those at Safeway.Sprinkled the Mexican shredded cheese from them,too,as well as a dollup of salsa verde & sour creme,chopped onions,bits of pickled jalapenos,and cilantro. That was muy excellente!

Jerry Jones · 12-04-2010, 02:21 PM

Mucho Grande, sounds like some good substitutions. I have done things with it like add green beans and white beans.

68chevyLQ4 · 07-02-2011, 07:42 PM

im going to have to make me a batch!

krue · 12-31-2013, 05:49 AM

Dang, I was hoping I posted my Crawfish soup recipe on here, but I only mentioned it...gotta find that recipe, my Dad wants some for New Years

Jerry Jones · 12-31-2013, 02:15 PM

:-)

**special-K** · 01-10-2014, 08:40 AM

I make this in a crock pot with (ground) chicken and white beans,so this week I decided to try boneless skinless chicken breast. Man that was GOOD! And,at $1.99 a pound it was the cheapest batch yet

***Liz*** · 01-10-2014, 08:50 PM
