It was a crazy Monday morning and I forgot to stir all the ingredients so it didn’t look like the picture and it cooked for 10 hours instead of 8. However, this Indian influenced recipe was a good and satisfying meal.

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!
I’ve decided to add something new to the blog – drumroll please…..
You know that I love to cook and in some circles am considered a Crock Pot Queen (sike), no really I just like sharing food finds on Instagram so decided to bring it to my blog.
Today’s 1st Friday Foodie Feature is
On Sundays when I was growing up my grandmother would always cook a big pot of fresh collards, kale, or mustard greens, a tradition that I have continued with my own family. Collards were always the chosen green but I have since discovered kale which is healthier has a sweeter taste and is good when used in a breakfast smoothie. The tradition of having vegetables with dinner also hasn’t changed but when I don’t feel like cooking fresh I’ll use canned or frozen.
I like trying new products especially if they are within my budget which was the case with the Mama Mae’s items at Shoprite. The good thing about Mama Mae’s Lean Mean Collard Greens is that they can be cooked in the microwave, on top of the stove or in the oven but the best thing about Mama Mae’s greens are the ingredients.
- collards
- water
- onions
- garlic
- sugar
- dried turkey stock
- roasted turkey juices/fat
- yeast extract
- salt
- black pepper
- liquid smoke
They tasted homemade because they basically use the same ingredients as I and contain no hard-to-pronounce artificial flavors or seasoning. The box states there are approximately 2 1/2 servings per package which was accurate, they are also low in fat and 50 calories per serving.
Mama Mae’s products are manufactured locally in Englewood Cliffs, NJ and if you like greens, I highly recommend trying them. I look forward to trying some of the other Mama Mae’s items.
