veggies yuk's Journal, 04 September 2008

LOL I have about 30 huge spaghetti squash in my garden! lol I am thinking about the cabbage.. I would do a cabbage/pork stew w/onion garlic and herbs! :) I'm sure some browned, ground turkey, seasoned well would make a delicious taste too. LOVE finding that hidden money!! :) Rock it up girly! 

Finding that 20 must have been great! I agree, pork and cabbage are made for each other.  

Great job incorporating and eating all those veggies! Keep thinking out of the box. You'll be a veggie lover in no time, Julieann 

ok...the cabbage pork thing sounds good...more directions please...can i dump it all in and leave it...what about pork broth or water... 

j...im not sure i will be a lover...but i will be a tolerater...lol...the other j 

I would just toss it all in, maybe add some carrots and/or green onions... I would use 2 cans of low sodium chicken stock and 4 cups of water. You could cut up a pork roast into large bite sized chunks, or leave it whole and just pull it apart when it's done. I would use Lawyers seasoning, garlic (chopped).. and lots of it, pepper and then some italian seasoning, sage or other fun herbs. I'd also add in some fresh rosemary, if you have it, and just put 2 or three whole sprigs in it. :) Have fun with it!! Oh... maybe some red wine, too! Let me know how it turns out! 

will do...thanks bunches...looking forward to it...lol 

Way to go with discovering that veggies are yummy! Great ideas on crockpot creations from bully - just one word of caution. I avoid all seasoned salts (like Lawry's and others) because they usually contain MSG. The manufacturers have taken to disguising it as an ingredient because of its recent lack of popularity and call it any number of different names. Hydrolized plant/vegetable protein, natural flavors, vegetable protein extract, autolyzed yeast/plant protein, sodium caseinate, yeast extract - these are all sources of MSG that the food manufactures list to disguise their "secret" ingredient. Have fun at your h2o aerobics tonight!  

i use the mrs dash's...i have about every flavor combo they make...lol...hubbys family has issues with their hearts...so we made that switch awhile back...very little salt is used in our house at all 

I want to try spaghetti squash! I'm just not sure how to fix it. Oh, and I vote you go to Wendy's! A grilled chicken sandwich and a small chili...super amounts of protein and it's low fat. 

Anyone know how the Taco Bell fresca stuff measures up? I am doing the Super Slim Me! chaellenge so no fast food for me, but might be good to know for future reference. And Spaghetti Sqaush is really nifty stuff!! 

the taco bell stuff doesn't measure up...it is totally bad...lol...this is a decision that i make and have to live with the consequences...i ususally do wendy's...thanks 

Pretty soon you're going to have to change your name to "Veggie Lover". :) 

I agree with mbhpro! Sounds like you are doing a turnabout and starting to love those veggies! On a garden to boot... Keep it up cuz ya know the results are worth it! 

You can do an italian slaw with your cabbage, no mayo, it's great, I'll look for the recipe, also chinese slaw, again I'll look for the recipe, ha! 

yes please send them to me...thank you so much 

By the way, that Chinese Cucumber salad has been requested several days ago but it's still under review. I dont know why it's taking so long. Last time I submitted a recipe it only took two days. However, one 'Skinny Bitches' recipe I submitted over two weeks ago is yet to be approved (maybe they're afraid of copyright infringement?). 

JulieC- sometimes they just get really busy here keeping up with all that is on the site. :) They will get to the recipe, no worries! :) 

Your journal post is delicious today -- like a really colorful produce cart! Keep living it up with that healthy lifestyle. 

LOL Veggies! You may soon need to change your screen name to VEGGIES YUM! =) =) smaller clothes....and finding "lost" $$ is always a great combo!! have a great rest of your day!
