Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Turnip Greens

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the turnip greens and cook for about 5-7 minutes until wilted.

  3. 3

    Combine and Season

    Add the cooked sweet potatoes to the skillet with the turnip greens. Season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
