This was smoothly creamy and fairly rich, so it's more filling than you expect. I expected it to be like a spinach soup, but the turnip greens made a richer taste. An original recipe from Porches Restaurant in Mississippi, printed in the Southern Pine newspaper, Today.
Ingredients:
4 slices bacon
1 onion
1/2 tsp salt
16oz chopped turnip greens with some roots
15oz can chicken broth
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup grated fresh parmesan
Directions:
1. Chop bacon into 1 pieces. Dice onion.
2. In a stockpot, cook bacon until soft but not brown.
3. Add diced onion and salt and saute until onion is transparent.
4. Add turnips, broth, and 2 cups water.
5. Cook until greens are tender, about 20 minutes. Add water if needed.
6. Add cream and bring to a boil. Simmer about 5 more minutes.
7. Stir in Parmesan cheese.
