This is my favorite greens recipe! I've made it many times and it always turns out perfect. I love the combination of flavors and the crispy bacon. I always serve this recipe with cornbread and black-eyed peas.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon from the recipe. The greens were still delicious! I served them with tofu and rice, and it was a great meal.

These greens are a staple in my house. I make them at least once a month. They're so easy to make and they always turn out delicious. I love serving them with fried chicken and mashed potatoes.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover greens. I had some collard greens that were starting to wilt, and this recipe gave them a new life. They were so good!

I'm not a fan of vinegar, so I omitted it from the recipe. The greens were still delicious! I served them with ham and cornbread, and it was a great meal.

These greens were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try making them again with less pepper next time.

This recipe is a keeper! The greens were cooked perfectly and the bacon and vinegar added just the right amount of flavor. I served them with cornbread and black-eyed peas, and it was a perfect Southern meal.

Edna's Greens were a delightful surprise! I'm not usually a big fan of greens, but these were so flavorful and tender. I especially loved the crispy bacon and the hint of vinegar. Will definitely be making this again.
