Description

During turnip greens season, this is a wonderful and different way to use them. You can always substitute kale, spinach or other hearty greens for the turnip greens. If you think you don’t like turnip greens you might want to give it a try anyways! I bet you will surprise youself!

Ingredients

  • 6 slices Smoked Bacon, Chopped
  • ½ whole Red Onion, Chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter (optional)
  • 8 whole Shiitake Mushrooms, Sliced
  • 1 bag Turnip Greens, Chopped (about 2-3 Cup Chopped Greens)
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • Fresh Ground Nutmeg, To Taste
  • 5 whole Eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons Flour
  • 16 ounces, weight Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
  • 1-½ cup Milk (2% Or Whole)
  • 1 piece 9-inch Pastry Crust

Preparation

Chop bacon and cook over medium/low heat until cooked through. Remove from the pan and add the chopped onion. (If you choose to omit the bacon, add the 2 Tablespoons of butter to the pan to cook the onions.) Cook for 2-3 minutes and then add the mushrooms and chopped greens. Mix and cover. Cook about 5 minutes or so until greens have wilted and are tender. Season with salt, pepper and ground nutmeg.

In a bowl combine eggs, flour, cheese and milk. Stir until incorporated. Add in the bacon and the greens mixture. Stir.

Place the crust in a pie dish and line with foil and add pie weights or dried beans. Pre-bake your crust at 375 for about 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Remove foil and beans and pour in the filling mixture. Return to the oven and bake about 30 minutes until the top begins to brown and the filling has set. (The middle may jiggle just a bit).

Serve this with a salad for a yummy meal! Mix a little bit of sorghum or honey into some balsamic vinegar with a little olive oil, salt and pepper for a yummy dressing!

Enjoy!
