Easy Quick Turnip Green Soup

 So I am the turnip green lover in our house. I absolutely love this soup but have been wanting to create a quicker version that makes a smaller amount. I think I've done this, it's not quite as good but close enough for me. A great recipe for those who live alone or that single turnip green lover!

Ingredients:

1 TBS minced onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
1  sm piece of hog jowl
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 cup frozen black-eyed peas
2 TBS Chicken granules
2 cups water
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 27 ounce can of Turnip Greens
1 tablespoon vinegar pepper sauce, plus more for serving
Salt, if needed

Instructions:

Add all ingredients and bring to a slow boil.
Reduce heat, cover and simmer approximately 40 minutes on medium heat or until peas are well done.
Be sure to taste before adding pepper sauce and some canned turnips have it already in them, you don't want to make it too spicy.
Serve with additional pepper sauce if desired.
Now all you need is some hot cornbread!
Thanks for stopping by y'all and please come again soon!
