Southern Turnip Greens
Chicken broth, water, olive oil, salt, and pepper are brought to a boil in a stockpot. Chopped turnip greens and a little sugar are added, and everything simmers on medium-low, stirred occasionally, until the greens are tender. It's a simple, classic Southern side dish that's easy on the budget.
