This is a traditional meal in our area or culture..I would have some pork different cuts prepared different ways..I would have mashed potatoes and possibly baked sweet potatoes..Collards or the greens could be turnips or cabbage..The greens eaten equal the green backs that will come into your hands and the peas equal the pennies or change that will come into your hand..
