Ingredients

  • 1 bunch mustard greens, washed and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Sauté Mustard Greens: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add chopped mustard greens, season with salt and pepper, and cook until wilted, about 5-7 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
  2. Prepare Cornbread: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, mix almond milk and maple syrup. Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed.
  3. Bake Cornbread: Pour the cornbread batter into a greased baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Assemble the Bowl: Once the cornbread is done, cut it into pieces. Serve the sautéed mustard greens in a bowl, topped with warm cornbread pieces.
