We love our rabbit food!

Tuesday is food co-op day and we love that day! Little Buddy and I excitedly get to pick up our bin of fresh, organic fruits and veggies. As summer approaches we are finally starting to get some really exciting foods in our bin and cabbage is one of them.

We make Brussels sprouts a lot around here too, and I have a go-to recipe my sister passed along. This recipe is awesome made with sprouts. I love the bitter, sour, salty and nutty taste combination. I thought it might work just as well for cabbage and it did. We love it so much I wanted to share it with you.

Now, bare with me, as I don't use many recipes while cooking and I often tend to throw ingredients together at random and pray it turns out edible. I've altered the recipe to our liking so here you go!

1/2 head of shredded cabbage
1-2 T. coconut oil
1/2 c. pecans
Juice from one lemon
3 T. freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
S & P to taste

Saute cabbage and pecans in coconut oil. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper and cook until just still slightly crunchy. Turn off heat and add cheese and cover until melted. Serve warm. Enjoy!

(Oh, and hey, if you are nursing a wee one, go ahead and skip the cabbage for a while. It can make for some pretty bad gas!)

Mmm...Fluffy Pancakes!

Apparently I have a hankering for baked goods lately. I like fiddling around in the kitchen changing up recipes and making new creations. Now that my little man is eating food, I like to prepare one meal that we can have as a family instead of a...

Carrot Muffins...(ahem, Birthday Cupcakes)

My husband turned 30 something this week. I must brag on him for a moment. When I was pregnant we would talk about the kind of parents we hoped to be and how we planned to raise our children. Let me tell you, he has far surpassed my expectations as...

No More Food Fights!

I grew up eating delicious meals. My mom is an amazing cook. We always ate a variety of foods and gathered as a family at the kitchen table for our meals. I went on to marry a guy who loves all kinds of food. He eats everything I put in front of...

Protein in Pregnancy

"Eat your protein!" That is what everyone seems to be telling me. "It helps the baby grow." "You need 80-100 grams while pregnant."Apparently I have been having trouble getting adequate protein. Now, I am keeping a food diary to account for every...
