The recipe was easy to follow. Only complaint is the amount of sugar…way too much sugar. After reducing the sugar, the recipe is great.

I really liked this receipe.
It does specify TOO much sugar though. I reducded the amount of pepper as well.

This was the first time I ever made greens. The Cayanne made the greens very spicy which was very good. Since my main dish was supper spicy I added more chicken stock (used instead of Veggie base) to tone the greens down. They were wonderful.
