Iceberg lettuce- I think it’s huge. Better not be cabbage

Nice haul. And oranges can sit in the fridge for a looooong time if you have space in the fruit drawer. Or make the margarita mix. :)
That kind of looks like cabbage to me. If it is, do you need help with it? I'm sure you're good with the rest. Also, if you happen to have fish sauce and butter in the house I have a really delicious broccoli recipe that might be different from your same old.
-
Haha yes that looks suspiciously cabbage like! :roll:
I’d be interested in the broccoli recipe.
-
I will have to further inspect but I think you’re right. It smelled like lettuce but it’s so big it must be cabbage. I will need ideas.
Also I got a cantaloupe as well.
And I don’t have fish sauce. Just the idea of it makes me gag. I don’t care what it really is.

that looks great! I can see something like this kicking me out of my comfort zone.
And yes to the broccoli recipe diablita!
We've been making a version of the lemony broccolini RA posted in the broccoli thread. So similar to what we were already doing, but amazing how much better it was!

Roasted Broccoli with Brown Butter Fish Sauce (http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/roasted-broccoli-brown-butter-fish-sauce)
the browned butter is clutch. don't skimp.

I'll be back tomorrow with more recipes but if you have access to a grill, slice thickly, spread w/ olive oil and salt and grill until charred.
-
Ok so it’s a giant head of cabbage. What do I do with it??

are they red delicious apples? The only thing those are good for is apple sauce.

They’re more of a Macintosh type. Not my favorite but work with some peanut butter

Is this for the cabbage? I love, love grilled cabbage. Unfortunately I cannot convince DH to love it too. He gets way too excited about slaw to even think about cooking it.
-
No grill and I haven’t had it stuffed.

I love slaw, that's my cabbage go to. I also like it stir fried asian style with ground pork and some shrooms....
-
picote, yes. I love grilled cabbage. I'll eat it as is but maybe if you make the slaw mayo stuff to put on decomposed-style he'd like it?
Stuffed cabbage is tasty. I haven't made this recipe (I usually wing it) but I make many of Tori Avey's recipes and they're always solid:

I got sent this as a suggestion - https://www.skinnytaste.com/un-stuffed-cabbage-bowls-instant-pot-or-stove-top/?fbclid=IwAR2_XWTGM55dLThIxVwQycivWuOk_-EZ7I15Sj6C8PxwICGrZ7_TlVec0Wk
I don't have all of the ingredients on hand.

Awesome autocorrect!!

We’ve been keeping up pretty well with our produce box. We are a little spoiled by all the years we did the CSA at the farm, though, because we are used to “just picked” freshness and the the stuff delivered in a box shipped from New Jersey (and, obviously, points beyond) just can’t compare. But, it comes right to our house and it’s reasonably priced, so we are going to stick with it until we can join the summer share at the farm. We missed the spring share this year and I’m regretting it.

I love cabbage!
My mom used to slice it thinly, steam it lightly, and toss with sour cream, a touch of sugar, and a touch of salt. Usually served as a side dish for pork chops, but it goes with just about anything.
My favourite way to use cabbage is in okonomiyaki (japanese-style pancake)... we usually use this recipe: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/okonomiyaki to get the proportions of veg vs. batter (the batter really just barely coats all the veg)... and will use shredded cabbage and whatever else is on hand... we rarely put meat in it, but shrimp and pork are common... serve with mayo + hot sauce (british "brown sauce" is HP sauce, which would also be good).
Also, cabbage pan-fried in butter with onions and apples is a great side OR under a soft-boiled egg OR in a bowl topped with toasted walnuts and feta cheese and/or roasted squash.
If we order chinese food, one thing I love is singapore noodles, but they are really way too salty for me to be eating... so I order them anyway, and mix with an equal volume of finely sliced cabbage for a pretty delicious cold noodle salad.

I love okonomiyaki. Made it for the first time recently. Thanks for the reminder.

My produce box this week had celery, onions, potatoes, oranges, apples, pears, carrots, one zucchini, an acorn squash, scallions, mushrooms... I think that's it.
I also got an instacart today and I doubled up on a couple things inadvertently (carrots and oranges) but we'll use all of those. Plus I bought cilantro, cukes, avocados, and bananas.
I feel set for now on the produce front, although I'd probably like to have more potatoes.
-
You got a good box Bonita!
I gave my mother the cabbage and the winter squash. I just couldn't deal. I still have broccoli, one zucchini, some lettuce to use up. I also still have the small peppers from a couple of weeks ago. I cut up the canteloup and pineapple, but I need to focus on eating them. I am eating two oranges or two apples with pb for breakfast, so those are making a dent finally. Oh and one giant onion and a bag of potatoes.
Boyfriend and I discussed getting a box to split next week. I am thinking we do Friday pick up so then I can get it and bring his half over that night since I go over on Fridays after work.
Meanwhile I had a big old pile of pasta for dinner last night with no veggies. I just needed a time out.
