Sounds good. I’ll be messing with cabbage today too…great timing! Wonder if it would work with plain milk? Maybe have to thicken a little….This just may be on the dinner table this evening! Thanks you! We were spared from that horrible storm other than a lot of rain, wind, and a short power outage yesterday. We’ve been praying for those who were hit so hard. My inlaws lost everything in the Florida hurricane years ago. Very devastating.

Hi Sherry,

Hope you and all Mimi’s posters weathered Sandy okay. What a terrible storm.

I make this recipe not long ago and need to make it again. It was very good. Not healthy, maybe, but good and easy.

Creamed Cabbage

5 c. shredded cabbage
2 Tbsp. white sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
2 c. heavy cream
1-1/2 c. dry bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place cabbage in a 2 quart casserole. Sprinkle with sugar, salt and nutmeg. Pour cream over cabbage and top with bread crumbs. Bake for 1 hour.

Thanks Fruffy! PatB has the same issue with her recipes being scattered all over the place. ?????? We love having them anyway you’re willing to post them! I’m home today until around three so am on fast-forward and not sure when I’m going to get these veggies taken care of. Another big head of cauliflower and a couple spaghetti squash are out there waiting for me too. Hurt my back at Mom’s with the cleaning/cleanout, which is yet another issue. Sometimes I think we humans are just one big issue!!!! Speaking for myself anyway! This back thing is dragging me down, and it is definitely not in the plan! Oh well…this too shall pass. It is what it is. Hopefully that cabbage is keeping well with the coolness. The heating element in that blasted clothes dryer died so now I’m hanging clothes out too until it’s fixed. It is all fixed other than some pipe or something DH has to pick up today. Happy, happy dance about that! I like to hang things outside but not because of necessity! Spoiled…….ugh…. AND…my plan was to pick up a half bushel of onions and one or two of apples today. Instant healing of the back would be fabulous about right now!

sorry about all the extra stuff in my post. Tried to clean it up, but obviously was not successful.

My m-i-l always froze her stuffed cabbage rolls in small containers to be taken out as needed. They were great

LOL I made some Colcannon for Thanksgiving. my son bought the cabbage and it was huge I only used 1/4 of it and I froze the rest. I’ll be making it again next week with baked ham.

Thanks ABBE! Forgot all about Colcannon. Maybe that’s what will be on the menu for tomorrow. For whatever goofy reason, I seem to only make that for St. Patrick’s Day. We like it too. The Coleslaw also sounds good. Was wondering if I could make and freeze some stuffed cabbage rolls for the freezer. My one friend cut her big head into chunks, blanched it, drained it, cooled it and froze the wedges to have all winter for stews, etc. That cabbage has been waiting for about a week. Good thing the weather has been so cool out in the mudroom! Thanks again. How are things going with you and the family?

Cole Slaw
1 small head cabbage
3 or 4 large carrots
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
light mayonnaise
Method
Quarter and scrub the cabbage ( the tighter the leaf the better) Peel the carrots and cut in half across the carrot. Chop in the food processor or use the old “knuckle buster” and grate. Use enough mayonnaise to hold everything together well after mixing. Toss in raisins and stir in well if desired.

Colcannon 3 pounds potatoes 1 small cabbage 2 large carrots 1/2 pound salt pork Method Peel and cut potatoes into quarters. Cut cabbage into wedges and slice thinly.* Peel and shred carrots. Cut salt pork into 1 inch cubes Boil potatoes over medium heat in a Dutch oven.until fork tender. In a large pot boil cabbage until tender but still crisp. Fry saltpork until golden on all sides When poatoes are ready drain and mash with a small of butter and cream stir in the cabbage, carrots and salt pork serve warm. * I tried grating but it turned out a bit mushy and I could n’t get thhe cabbabe into my food proceessor so i don’t know if that would work or not just as a time saver.
