Gumbo Z'herbes = Green Gumbo = Cajun Vegetarian Gumbo = a flavorful pot of cooked greens. Using a roux and holy trinity, you'll stew a few pounds of your favorite greens into a delectable stew. Which types of greens are best for boiling into stew? Literally all of them: turnip, mustard, collard, dandelion, spinach, chard, beet, kale, parsley. Traditional green zaz can sometimes include smoked ham hock. Leave it out for a vegan/vegetarian gumbo recipe. Freeze green gumbo for a nutritious bowl of flavorful Southern boiled greens any time.

www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes...
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut oil, lard or other vegetable oil
1 cup flour
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 cup chopped celery
4 cloves garlic
2 bay leaves
1 Tbsp Cajun seasoning (like Tony Chacheres)
10 cups water, boiling
3 pounds assorted greens (i.e. kale, collards, mustard greens, turnip greens, spinach, chard, parsley, dandelion greens, beet greens), chopped (about 14 cups)
Salt
Recipe summary: Clean and chop the greens. Heat oil and flour in a small pot over low heat for 40-60 minutes, stirring often (making the roux), until it's the color of chocolate. Add the roux to a large pot over medium heat, add in onion, bell pepper, celery, and cook until softened. Add in garlic and cook for a couple more minutes. Add in water a couple cups at a time, stirring as you go along. Add in greens and stew for a long, slow time, at least an hour.
