I make this every year in the fall and winter months. But i like to used smoked sausage it gives the soup a great favor. I love this soup with some cornbread.
Danielle Nunez
I made this and added a pound of hot breakfast sausage that I had scrambled it was amazing. I took it to a Christmas party and they scraped the pot to get the last bite. Will definitely make again
Dustin Hall
Easy to make and very tasty. Served it with cornbread. Delicious
Mark White
Excellent recipe as written. It is also easy to just use what you have on hand.
Michael Smith
I’ve been looking for this recipe since I moved away to college. We use Conecuh County Sausage instead because it’s my favorite.
Benjamin Cook
Yum!!
Frank Vaughn
I had fresh greens and dried beans, so that was my substitution.
William Roberts
Surprisingly, it was a great soup. I was not a fan of turnips , this soup gives me options to eat turnips. I made some modifications based on what was in my kitchen at the time, that was similar to what the receipe called for. Therefore I gave it four stars though it was equal to five. Since I made changes I couldn’t rate it higher.
Rebecca Wilson
I used fresh turnips, 1 tsp sugar, love this with a pan of corn bread.

I got fresh turnips from a local Produce group I’m a part of…so this recipe was perfect for the beautiful greens! I used my crockpot & cooked on low all day. I also added some leftover chicken.
Rachel Hodges
I got this recipe by way of my sister. It sounded strange but it is so easy and so good. It’s also very forgiving if you make any changes in the ingredients to accommodate what you have in the pantry. Love it!
Dawn Russell
Great recipe. I used fresh turnip greens instead of canned. Have made it a few times now.
Holly Carey
I love some turnip greens but in soup? Really? Really!! I loved it. DH isn’t any kind of green fan BUT he even liked it. I read the reviews & added a can of Rotel and frozen corn. Couldn’t find pork Kielbasa so it was turkey for us. Served it with cornbread sticks to totally blow my diet. The only thing I will do different next time is double the amount of Kielbasa and quarter the slices–the 1″ chunks were too large. Thanks for the great recipe!
Brian Johnson
I also wanted to try it with spinach and it was just as good.
Michael Alexander
Great fall meal!
Katrina Kane
Delicious! My only changes were that I used frozen turnips and added fresh cut corn. This is the second time I’ve made this, and I plan to make it a lot more in the future.

Took this to a church pot luck and it got great reviews. I omitted the tabasco and added shredded chicken and purple hull peas and a little okra. Make sure to use low sodium broth, I didn’t and it was a little too salty.
