I'm a bit of a carnivore myself. Making the carpaccio has its benefits.

I love my veggies so I understand. This recipe was for the arugula and chevre salad last summer and did great, is a big hit wherever I've used it. It also makes excellent slaw dressing for pulled pork sandwiches if you're into bbq.

Vidalia Onion Dressing

* 1 cup Vegetable Oil
* 1 medium Vidalia Onion
* 1/2 cup White Sugar
* 1/3 cup Cider Vinegar
* 1 Tbs Dijon mustard
* 3/4 teaspoon Salt
* 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
* 1/2 teaspoon Paprika
* 1/2 teaspoon Fresh Garlic
* 1/4 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Put everything in a blender and puree for 30sec or so.

I am curious about your choice of Cabbage. I have found the purple cabbage to be more appealing as far as taste. What is your take on this?

I use them both. I find purple to be a little spicier than green in general. I like all of it.

My diet is 180 where it used to be. I was the standard fat unhealthy american who ate whatever.

I eat cabbage at least 3x a week now.

Anybody grow their own veggies like cabbage? I used to say it was not worth it with the prices at the stores being so cheap, but damn times are changing. Thinking about putting in a raised bed in the back yard this year. I think I could eat all the broccoli I could grow.

I grow all that stuff. I was gonna mention broccoli, it works miracles for cholesterol. Huge dietary fiber per serving. Eat the stalks, everything. Same w leafy greens, easy to grow and grow very fast. I harvest salad greens indoors 3 weeks from germination.

Have a community college near by that does a tomatoes and pepper sale each spring. I have 5 different tomatoes plants and seven different pepper plants going so far this spring. I purchased 2 Anaheim chili plants new for this year. Oh and a tomoteo plant.

 

[Cool_Beans]

Cherry tomatoes did awesome indoors. If you're looking for raised beds the Vegogarden beds are really good. I've got 4 of them and they are quality.

That's really cool. We had a campus garden and students could claim a plot and grow. A lot actually did. I always thought that was neat.

Here is a biquinho sweet drop pepper plant in flower last winter. They're like little red berries. I love pepper plants.

 

[Cool_Beans]

Jalapeno, serrano and habanero in there. Sorry for all the posts I'm jonesing to get outside so bad right now.

Looks amazing beans. I really like that indoor lettuce contraption you got there.

This is exactly what I need, another time consuming hobby!

Aerogarden! My family has been farmers since the stone age and I can say it performs exactly the way they claim. Had ours for 3 years now and it is the starting point for all of our growing here at home, year round. Best growing related thing I have ever bought.

 

[Cool_Beans]

I dropped these in a week ago yesterday I believe. Peppers are behind tomatoes a few days but sprouting. Still have a few weeks before we can plant outside here.

I'm a completely untrained poser in the kitchen, but I've been posing for decades, so occasionally some good stuff is produced. If anything photogenic occurs, I'll post.

Morning all! Wife and kids really love these breakfast tacos, plus I get to sneak in some spinach.
