Bushs Mustard Greens Casserole Recipes

DONNASUE'S CORNBREAD MUSTARD GREEN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the mustard greens, onion, and roasted garlic until the onions are translucent and the mustard greens are wilted and reduced, about 10 minutes. Drain greens mixture in a colander if very juicy.
• Mix the corn muffin mix, biscuit mix, eggs, and milk together in a large bowl to make a batter; mix in the Dijon mustard and seasoned tenderizing salt, then gently stir in the cooked greens, ham, and Mexican cheese blend until thoroughly combined. Scrape the mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and a toothpick inserted into the center of the casserole comes out clean, about 50 minutes. If casserole begins to brown too quickly, cover dish with foil partway through the cooking time. Turn off oven, and allow casserole to stand 15 minutes in the hot oven before serving.

MUSTARD GREEN GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Remove any large stems from the greens and wash them thoroughly; do so in a sink with at least 5 inches of water. Moving the leaves around in the water and allowing them to sit for a few minutes to allow the sand or dirt to fall to the bottom of the sink. Once clean, roughly chop the greens. You should have 1 pound finished greens once they are stemmed. (Weigh the greens after stemming, but before washing.) After washing the greens, place them in a salad spinner to thoroughly dry them.
• Butter a 9 by 11-inch or 2 1/2-quart baking dish and set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, ricotta, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• In a large, 13 by 11-inch roasting pan set over 2 burners on medium heat, melt the butter in 1 corner of the pan. Add the garlic, mushrooms, and a pinch of salt and cook until the mushrooms give up their liquid, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Add the greens and cook until they are wilted, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. The greens will reduce to less than 1/4 of their original volume and begin to look like thawed, frozen spinach. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Add the greens to the egg and cheese mixture and stir to thoroughly combine. Pour into the prepared baking dish, top with the crackers, place on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes and serve.

WILTED MUSTARD-GREEN PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a 6-quart kettle three fourths full with salted water to a boil for pasta.
• Remove and discard ribs from greens. Coarsely chop greens and finely chop garlic. Finely grate zest from lemons.
• Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. While pasta is cooking, in a 12-inch nonstick skillet cook zest and garlic in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until garlic is golden and remove skillet from heat. Add greens to garlic mixture with salt and pepper to taste, tossing with tongs until greens are wilted. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water and drain pasta in a colander. Add hot pasta and 1/4 cup reserved pasta cooking water to greens and cook over moderately low heat, tossing until combined well. If mixture is too dry, stir in more pasta cooking water.

MUSTARD GREENS 'N BEANS

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the olive oil; cook and stir onion and garlic until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
• In a bowl, mix vinegar, water, sugar, dry mustard, and red pepper flakes until sugar has dissolved. Place the mustard greens into the onion and garlic mixture, and pour in the vinegar mixture. Stir to combine, cover the Dutch oven, and bring to a boil. Simmer the greens until the liquid has been absorbed, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Mix in the white beans, allow to heat through, and season to taste with salt and black pepper.
