    Great tasting soup ... really great way to eat your greens! I added a bit of crushed habanero for some extra heat.

    I am had an over abundance of greens so i decided to try this recipe...as i am also a lover of gumbos. Fantastic!! Making great gumbo can be time consuming but this was too easy and half the time. Just about any greens work in this recipe. My family may is not as enthusiatic about gumbos as i am so i will have to keep this recipe in my box just for me. Definitely will make again.

    I saw this on the show and had to try it - we loved it!! Even my picky husband loved it - and he is not a veggie fan.

    Wife & I trying soup & salad diet, this one sounded different. Used boneless/skinless chicken thighs in place of ham, threw them in whole with onions in beginning and a tbsp of Essence. Otherwise followed recipe. By the end the chicken had fallen apart nicely, and I'll be making again.

    Hey. Don't change the recipe. That's why he is Emeril and we're not. It's all good.

    The goodness from all the greens and the less than usual cooking time for this gumbo makes this a healthy dish - and it is so flavorful. And the recipe gives leeway to season as you like.

    As good as it is, this dish can also be used as the jumping off point for other kinds of gumbo - just add sausage or chicken or shredded pork or whatever you like.

    I like the cabbage in the gumbo. I never thought about using that before. It works.

    Olive oil? That has to be a restaurant thing. It appears to add a shine and a silky mouth feel - I have made this gumbo with and without - no big difference either way.

    There's a big pot simmering right now, in fact. And in a little while? Yum.

    Probably not as good as the other one listed that uses ham hocks, and rendered bacon grease but is quicker and undoubtedly healthier. The wild rice in it is fantastic. Even better for lunch the next day.

    I loved this. Saw the recipe on television, wrote everything down, then went out to the garden to collect greens. OMgoodness ... this was a dish of old fashioned comfort. Nothin like cookin 'a mess o greens!' Those southerners kno their stuff! The only thing I did differently was to add a small amount of crisped pancetta and cut down on the olive oil. I wanted my fat to come from the pancetta not the olive oil. Thanks Emeril! You did it again.
