Mustard Greens With Peas

Mustard Greens With Peas

D. Rattray
Tasty mustard greens are made with frozen mustard greens. Use less bacon and add some leftover diced ham, if you'd like to have the smoked ham flavor.

Ingredients:

  • 10 to 12 slices bacon, diced
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 16 ounces frozen mustard greens
  • water
  • diced cooked ham, optional
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, seasoned salt, or salt, or to taste
  • dash red pepper, optional
  • dash black pepper, to taste
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons butter

Preparation:

Cook bacon just until almost crisp; add onion and sauté until onion is tender and bacon is crisp.

Put chopped mustard greens in a medium saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes. Add bacon and onion, along with ham, if using. Toss with seasonings and butter to taste.
Serves 4 to 6.
