I love my greens... good tip on the rinsing the greens... I learned that the hard way. It takes the bitter out. Will be giving this a try... Bring on the cornbread!

Oh yes, that's a must, cornbread with this, good combination. You'll love it.


Sounds wonderful, Henrie...problem is, there are no canned crowders or field peas in Jersey...=(
Would love to try it though!


Oh, I haven't something like this since I was a kid!! Sounds wonderful!


Mmmm, sounds wonderful! :)


And I have a terrific cornbread recipe to go with this. Thank you!!!


Ooooh, I am SO going to make this! I *love* collard greens!
