Receive Text UpdatesMy signature dish are my greens. My husband is West African. I am from Mississippi. I combined the West African method with my seasonings added east African spices and I serve it with rice like the West Africans eat it or fufu , and sometimes in injera. There are many things, my friends and family love that I make, but that one is the one that is a request year after year. It’s also disappointing when we have gatherings, and I don’t make it!
