I wanted to make cabbage for St. Paddy’s day, plus cabbage is an all-star vegetable. For it contains all kinds of plant magic that’s designed to keep us healthy.

This cruciferous vegetable is made up of some major players when it comes to nutrition and cancer prevention. If you’re anything like me, you’ll want to read all about it! Check out this website for more information on why you should be eating more cabbage!

I made SmittenKitchen’s cabbage and sausage casserole, which came out delicious! I enjoy the sense of connection I feel when I’m making these recipes that are I know people have been making for generations. Speaking of, I also made potato kugel. That also came out really well, it was approved by a long time kugel-eater.

I lined the table with pickles, mustards, sauerkraut, sour cream, chopped parsley and green onion. Some of my eaters sat outside to enjoy the warm spring weather. I think it’s time to get a long picnic table so we can all get some time outside for lunch. Life is good.
