Every part of my life is a work in progress. I am constantly striving to be better today than I was yesterday. As a Christian, wife, mother, family member and friend, and in my health and fitness goals. Hopefully I'm not the only one out there who knows the successes and the struggles that come along with it.

The Whole30, Day 10!
So, here I am, day 10 of the Whole30 Challenge! Still going great and I am actually surprised that I haven't caved yet. Although I almost did when I saw this amazing picture and recipe of these scrumptous looking cupcakes that my friend Heather baked. Good thing she lives like, 8 hours from me or else I would've driven over to her house and demanded some. So, tonight I tried something WAY easy, and I was a little leary because I've never really liked cooked cabbage. Or so I thought. This is a recipe I got from the Primal Blueprint Cookbook, which I am loving by the way. This is a super simple easy recipe that can be ready in under a hour with almost no prep time. The amazing thing was I loved it and so did Eli!
The recipe in the cookboook called for smoked kielbasa sausage, but we have about 20 packs of venison summer sausage in the freezer, so I used that instead. One head of cabbage, chopped (or a bag of the preshredded, which is what I used), a couple of tablespoons of water or chicken broth, and a couple of tablespoons of the fat of your choice (ghee, lard, EVOO). I coated a 9x13 dish with EVOO, spead the cabbage out, placed my sliced sausage on top, added two tablespoons of water and then dotted the top with a little more EVOO. Cover with a lid or foil and cook for 40 minutes, removing the lid for the last 10 minutes so it can brown. Yummers!

Gross! haha that sounds terrible! Except for the venison. I love some venison! But I'm glad you liked it :) and Eli!! that's the best when they will actually eat something new :)
ReplyDeleteHa! Thanks for the shout out, however I'm sorry it was at the risk of you almost breaking down. Don't do it! I love that by making those cupcakes, I was still in keeping with my dessert resolution (made from scratch). I have to admit...there's been more baking going on at our house, but at least MOST of the time I try to sneak in veggie purees. So glad you're still going strong. You'll have to do a post where you tell us everything you eat in a day. I still don't know how you're doing without grain or beans!
