I would have said hojas de nabo as well but I found a word I don't know 'grelos'

Apparently, grelos is known as ´rapini´ and turnip greens is a more generic term. - mediterrunio, Nov 24, 2010
Looks like bok choy tho (we get a lot of Chinese greens here). Must be regionalisms! - margaretbl, Nov 24, 2010

Nabo Verdes is "green turnips" - not the same as "turnip greens" :-) - pesta, Nov 24, 2010
