NEELYS' BRAISED MUSTARD GREENS WITH BACON AND RAISINS

Neelys' Braised Mustard Greens With Bacon and Raisins image

Recipe from Down Home with the Neelys from the Food Network. Yum, yum, yum! They serve this as a side dish with flank steak and mashed potatoes for a complete romantic meal. The chicken stock and bacon take away some of the bitterness of the greens (which I am convinced that you either love or hate) and the sweetness of the raisins is a great complimentary flavor!
