I tried to be open minded. But I am afraid it tastes like chewy weeds, not disgusting, but not great either. The bacon helps a lot. I have a whole bag to eat, so maybe I will develop a taste for Mustard Greens.

Mustard Greens
Groceries tend to be expensive here. Last week during a grocery shopping trip, I noticed these BIG bags of mustard greens for very little price. I know that they have a very high nutrition value and I like swiss chard, so I decided to try them. DCers consider themselves in the South, so there is a lot of Southern food in the grocery store. I took them home and followed the cooking directions on the bag. Adding some meaty bacon and baking powder biscuits.

The "Southern" way to have them is stewed for a looong time with lots of salt pork and bacon. OK, but not really the best. I still like them cooked like spinach with vinegar or mustard.
Leila: Everything tastes better with lots of bacon grease.
It looks like chewy weeds. Can you cook with them like you do spinach? Finely chop and toss in a spaghetti sauce or something like that?
