African Peanut Soup With Mustard Greens image

I got this recipe about 2 years ago in a magazine which I promptly misplaced. About a month ago I got it again in an email from Cuisine at Home. This time I promptly made it with mustard greens from my garden and took it to a potluck. All I brought home was an empty pot it was so good. I've adjusted the cayenne because some people found it to be a bit warm at 1/2 tsp although my dh and I enjoyed it as is.
