Improv Cooking Challenge: March 2022

Cabbage and Meat

• See Ji Tan - Chinese Lion’s Head Meatballs from Pandemonium Noshery
• Grilled Rachel Tacos byA Day in the Life on the Farm
• Cabbage and Noodles from Palatable Pastime
• Keto Cabbage & Bacon Stir Fry from Sneha’s Recipe
• Kielbasa Potato Stuffed Shells from Cookaholic Wife
• Ghatte Manchurian Noodles from Magical Ingredients

Are you cabbage lovers in your house?  We are.  It is one of our favorite vegetables and it gets combined with meat pretty regularly here.  From Stuffed Cabbage made traditionally or in a casserole or deconstructed or paired with Corned Beef or Kielbasa.  This grilled salad gets made at least once each summer. And, of course, Cabbage and Meat are often paired in soups all winter long.

I decided to share a fun recipe for you to make for an upcoming Taco Tuesday.  I made Rachel Tacos because I had coleslaw in my refrigerator but this taco is equally as good as a Reuben using sauerkraut.

 You don't have to wait for leftovers from St. Pat's Day.  I used deli corned beef slices. I heated them on the grill pan and then used the pan to heat and grill the flour tortilla, with a slice of swiss on one half of the tortilla and the warmed corned beef on the other.  When the cheese was melted I removed the tortilla to a plateand added the coleslaw. When using sauerkraut I would add it to the taco on the grill pan, close the taco and grill both sides until warmed through.
