I am in amazement how much food I get for $20 – it is really helping my food budget – well if I actually set one. Which I need to desperately – this is my plan for August.

Cabbage & Carrot Gratin

Okay since I have shares in our local CSA – I have been getting tons of cabbage. Cabbage hasn’t really been a vegetable that I have used much in my cooking life. So I have been forced to learn how to use it. Which isn’t really bad…just a learning curve. So today I tried this Cabbage and Carrot Gratin that I got from Green Earth Institute, a great site for learning what to do with various vegetables you get from a CSA.
Cabbage & Carrot Gratin
Posted by Carole KochInstead of parsley, try using fresh CSA thyme leaves for the garnish.
In a skillet coated with cooking spray, sauté until crisp tender:
2 cups shredded cabbage
1/2 cup shredded carrots (note: about 1 carrot)
1/3 cup chopped green onionsTransfer to greased 1-quart baking dish.
In a bowl, combine:
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons shredded cheesePreheat oven to 375. Pour over vegetables. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 40 minutes.
Serves 4.
This was tasty. I used one small cabbage and 2 carrots so I ended up doubling everything else – but the recipe turned out well. I also used Thyme from garden instead of parsley.
