  14 1/2  Oz            vegetable broth
   1      Teaspoon      dried thyme
   2      Tablespoons   vegetarian worcestershire sauce

Stir in Creole seasoning.
Add onions and garlic.  Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until 
onion soften, about 3 minutes.  Stir in okra, cover and cook, stirring 
occasionally, until okra is just tender, 5 to 7 minutes.  Add broth, thyme, 
Worcestershire, and wine.  Cook, stirring, 5 minutes.
Gradually add greens, stirring them gently into stew.  Cover and cook until 
greens are tender, 15-20 minutes.  Add salt.
