On special occasions at work, we would ask Julia , who helped us keep everything cleaned up at the Salon, to cook us these greens. They we wonderful! So when I was movng to Nashville,I ask Julia if she would tell me how she cook them. My sons love them, infact my older son said he will not eat anybody else's.
