Turnip Greens Soup

Chilton County Master Gardeners’ Christmas Lunch this year featured soups, salad, and a variety of breads. The Turnip Greens Soup was quite a surprise.

Turnip Greens Soup
1 lb. Kielbasa sausage, cubed

1 medium onion, chopped

2 qts. chicken broth

2  16 oz bags frozen chopped turnip greens (some brands include roots)

2  14.5 oz cans great Northern beans, rinsed and drained

1 pkg Knorr Vegetable soup mix

1 t. hot pepper sauce (Tabasco)

1 t. garlic powder
1 pinch Creole seasoning

salt and pepper to taste (did not add, plenty of salt in broth and beans and sausage)

Cook onion and sausage in oil over medium heat until onion is tender. Add remaining ingredients, then bring to a boil. Lower the temperature and simmer for 2 hours. Paula Blevins-Russell provided this recipe adapted from  Turnip Green Soup.
