Vegetables

Good for you Turnip Greens

Nov20

Cook 2 to 3 slices bacon in the pan you will be cooking greens in, after the bacon is cooked leave in pan.
Wash and cut greens: add water or chicken broth to about 3 inches above the greens
add salt and cover and cooked on med. heat til tender. This is the way we like them. Some people like to mix up some cornbread batter and drop in spoonful’s on top of greens. some like boiled eggs sliced on top. Some like red pepper flakes. Make them your and put in what you like. I promised easy recipes and trying to bring to you simple and easy for any cook
I try to use the fat in moderation 2 or 3 stripes gives plenty flavor and saves on fat and calories  For more yummy recipes check me out @ http:mwilliams6337.@wordpress.com   Please Like and Share.
Greens are also good mixed with collards, mustard, and kale.

Chocolate Snowballs

Red Velvet Cake

Swiss Steak, Pinto Beans &Boiled Cabbage

Sour Dough Bread And Bagles

Mom's Chicken & Dumplings

 

 Mary's Country Biscuits

2 cups self rising flour

3/4 cup lard

1  tsp baking powder

1 to 1/2 cups buttermilk

Fold over a few times to smooth out without mixing very much extra flour. ( just enough so it is not sticky, I pat mine out instead of rolling keeps from overworking the flour. and how about this !! you don't have a rolling pin to clean up.

I also use wax paper to pat my dough out on. just roll your mess up and throw in  away.

Cut your biscuits and place in an iron skillet and bake preheated oven to  400 degrees, about 12 to 14 min. or until golden brown.
