I thank our awesome Lord for another glorious day! Lately I have been thinking about Nanny Bailey; a very unique classy woman. I had an opportunity to become very close to this beautiful lady when I was just nineteen years old. She was very wise and had a heart of gold. Truly godsend! She would grow her own veggies in her front yard, imagine that!
I decided to go to the HEB and purchase some collard greens and then I checked out several on-line recipes. I decided to take a little from each one and modify to come up with what I remembered of Nanny's version on collard greens and also to suit my own healthier choices. I replaced the ham hocks with smoked turkey wings and the lard with olive oil. I added a sprinkle of cholula to each serving. (collard greens, red pepper, onion, brown sugar, vinegar, sea salt, organic low sodium chicken broth, fresh garlic and cholula) yum -yum! The aroma of home cooking filled our home.
Nanny Bailey loved to cook and bake; family gatherings in her home was her delight. May her legacy live on from generation to generation. I will do my part to pass it on....
