  2. Stir butter and olive oil into sausage, add turnip greens and garlic. Cook greens mixture over high heat, stirring every 5 minutes, until wilted and sausage is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Season greens mixture with salt and pepper and continue cooking over medium-low heat for 10 minutes more.

Recipe Note

My family loves this side dish, especially my husband who is more than picky when it comes to green veggies. My son always asks for seconds on this side dish.
