I've been a little quiet lately, but y'all...I made this recipe last night that was sooooo good.... Here it is:

Dirty Cabbage

1 pound ground meat, brown and drained of excess grease (I used ground turkey, but you can use whatever you like... beef, turkey, chicken, pork... If you use a really lean meat, add olive oil to the pan when browning.)

12 ounces of Andouille Sausage, sliced or quartered, you choose (I used chicken andouille, quartered.)

Brown the ground meat and place into a bowl. Then brown the sausage and place into the same bowl as the ground meat.

Add to the pan, along with a drizzle of olive oil and saute until softened:

2 bell peppers, diced (whatever color you want to use)
1/2 yellow onion +/-, diced
1 stalk celery, diced

then add to the pan and saute:
3-4 cloves garlic, smooshed. (or you can use a tablespoon or so of jar-lic!)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons cajun seasoning (I used Ragin' Cajun, but you can use whatever brand you like!)

Then dump the meat back into pan and add:

~2 pounds of thinly sliced cabbage.

Stir to combine. Then add:

1 cup of broth (chicken, beef or veggie).

Cover and cook until cabbage is wilted and cooked through.

Stir in:
3 tablespoons of Apple C***r Vinegar
Salt/Pepper to taste.

I suppose you could use an equal amount of riced cauliflower instead of cabbage without any modifications.

You could probably sub rice for cabbage as well, just up your broth to the amount of rice your using. Or add leftover cooked rice.

I'm having leftovers today, but I think I'm gonna mash a potato up to eat with it!

Here's the Chocolate Cake I made earlier...you'll be pleasantly surprised at the ingredients! Here's the recipe and my takeaway.

Almost Vegan Almond Chocolate Cake...could be completely vegan by swapping some ingredients.

1.5 c Prunes or Dates
1/3 c REAL Maple Syrup
1/4 c nut butter or sun butter
1.25 c milk of preference
2.5 c almond flour
1/2 c baking cocoa
1 lg egg, egg substitute equivalent, or 2 tab ground flax
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/3 c mini choc chips of choice for top

In a food processor, add dates, maple syrup, nut butter and blend until smooth. If you want to soak your prunes or dates beforehand, you can but just make sure they are drained well.

Add egg, cocoa, baking powder, and baking soda until mixed up well. I usually put on low. When mixed up, add almond flour. Drizzle in milk while processor is on low.

Batter will be thick. Don't be surprised! I sprinkled with the mini chocolate chips but that is completely optional. Pour into an 8x8 or 9x9 pan. Make sure you spray your pan with non-stick spray and/or line with parchment paper. Bake at 350⁰ for 30 to 40 minutes. Your knife should come out clean with a few crumbs; kind of like brownies. In fact, the cake is heavier and doesn't raise a whole lot; and, reminds me of brownies. You can also drizzle with a chocolate glaze if you want, or dust with powdered sugar.

My takeaways: i did not soak my fruit. I should have added a teaspoon or two of vanilla extract, and a dash or two of salt. Next time. I am glad I sprinkled with chocolate chips because it adds a little sweetness without being super sickening sweet. No icing needed! It's supposed to serve twelve, but my picture shows a piece with it cut into eight. I think I'll cut each one in half. They are rich and chocolatey; they definitely feel like your cheating on your diet!

BAKED OATMEAL UPDATE!

I've been experimenting with my Baked Oatmeal Recipe over the last couple months. I really like something hearty for breakfast, whether it be baked oatmeal, or overnight oats. Here's the latest version:

2 lg eggs
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
2-2 1/2 c old fashioned oatmeal (no substitute)
2 tab honey or real maple syrup (can add up to 4 tab, or even sugar substitute, but I'd add a banana or applesauce if using a powdered sweetener)
1/2-2/3 c milk, any kind
1 c greek yogurt (vanilla or plain, for more protein)
1 tsp vanilla

1/2 c natural peanut butter, or nut butter of choice, melted to make pourable if swirling in after in the pan
1/2 c strawberry jam, or jam of choice to swirl in after in the pan

Mix wet ingredients together, add dry ingredients. You can either mix the peanut butter with the wet ingredients or swirl it into the oatmeal once it's in the pan along with the jam. Bake 350⁰ about 30-45 min. Will be firm and browned around the edges. Pan should be full; I use a 9x9 or 9x7. Makes 6 servings. Make sure you spray the pan. Smelled just like peanut butter cookies!

Store in fridge. I heated up this morning with a drizzle more of milk. I freeze in portions and just take one out the night before.

For the last few batches of baked oatmeal I've made, I let sit in the pan for 30-45 minutes before baking. You can add a banana or two if you'd like, too, to sweeten up, or just because you like pb&j with banana. You'll need to add some bulk, whether it be unsweetened applesauce or banana, if using sugar substitute.

If you use the basic recipe (minus the pb&j) as a base, you can add just about anything to it. Get crazy! I've made some interesting combinations over the last few months! Use up to 2 cups of whatever mix-ins you like: chocolate chips, fruit, apples & cinnamon, raisins, dried fruit, etc...

If you use the name brand old fashioned oats, they stay more whole and have a bit of a bite. I use whatever I have, but be sure it's old fashioned and not quick cooking.

I'm sure you can sub out whatever dairy, or non-dairy, milk/yogurt you use. You can also sub out the ingredients with GF ones to make GF.
