Southern Turnip Greens - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups cooked chopped turnip greens (2 bundles) or 1 lb fresh turnip greens (2 bundles)
    salt and pepper
    1 teaspoon sugar
    2 teaspoons vinegar
    1 teaspoon horseradish sauce
    1/2 cup mayonnaise
    5 ounces cream of mushroom soup (half of a 10.75 oz can)
    2 eggs, beaten
    1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs
    1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
    cooked bacon, to top if desired
Preparation
    Stem and wash fresh greens; place in water in a large kettle, bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook until tender. (Or use frozen turnip greens.).
    Grind the greens in a food processor and measure 2 cups for the recipe. (I had exactly 2 cups when I made this.).
    Combine the greens with salt and pepper, sugar, vinegar, horseradish, mayonnaise, soup, and eggs. Mix well.
    Put the mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish or 8x8-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle crumbs on top.
    Bake at 350F for 50 minutes.
    Sprinkle tops with cheese and bacon, and bake another 10 minutes, until cheese melts.
