Cabbage Rolls/Stuffed Cabbage
Stuffed Cabbage Recipe
1 lg. head of cabbage - Cut the core out so the leaves are easy to separate. I put the whole head, core down, and par boil. While boiling, I remove the outer leaves as they get soft.
1 1/2 C. rice (cooked)
1 lb hamburger. : sautee 1/2 onion and add hamburger. I use a little bacon grease with this. Just gives it a little fat flavor. You don't have
to. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder and cook until browned. Mix with rice.
On the cabbage, I cut some of the large rib part off from the tip of the cabbage. This part is really tough and hard to roll if you leave it on. Put rice mixture into cabbage, roll and place in baking dish.
Mix 1 can tomato soup with 1 small can diced tomatoes, maybe a little water and pour over rolls. I line a casserole dish with tin foil before adding in the cabbage rolls. After I have poured the juice over everything, I take the left over little and outside bad leaves and cover all the cabbage rolls.
Bake at 350 1 hr and reduce heat to 325 and cook for another hour.
These always taste best the next day after they have had time to sit in all the juices. We never wait till the next day.

Canning Without Sugar
by Paul Leatham
Description:
Peaches, Apricots, Pears, Cherries, etc.
Ingredients:
Fresh Fruit
Canned, Unsweetened Pineapple Juice
Pit fruit and peel where necessary. Bring to a boil in a large pot with 1/2 can of pineapple juice added. Fill jars, seal and process!
You can also just pour pineapple juice over the raw fruit in jars if you prefer, but it uses more juice. You can 1/2 and 1/2 the juice with water to make it go further. Keeps the fruit a nice fresh color and the fruit tastes more like itself and less like sugary nothings. You know what I mean? Fruit canned with sugar does NOT taste like the fruit it started out as!
Preparation Time:Days and Days! :)
Chocolate Chip Cookies, Gluten Free, Vegan too
Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies This recipe is vegan because no animal products like eggs and milk are used. It's a great raw recipe if you're hankering for some cookie dough. I wonder how it would turn out in a dehydrator?

2 cups peas
1 cup sliced celery
1/4 c.chopped red pepper
1/4 c. green onion
1/2 c. sliced olives
2/3 c. vegenaise
1 Tb bwn rice vinegar
1 tsp. basil
1 tsp. dijon mustard
1/4 pepper
Cook pasta, add peas the last 2 minutes or so. Drain and rinse. (You can use fresh peas too).
Combine raw vegs and pasta together in a bowl. Set aside. Mix together in a separate bowl: vegenaise, mustard, basil, pepper and vinegar. Pour the sauce over the pasta. Refrigerate for at least hour.
Pickled Sweet Daikon Radish
Recipe courtesy of Tyler Florence
Ingredients
1 cup rice vinegar
1 cup water
1 cup sugar (can substitute agave nectar to taste- may only need 3/4 cup)
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 pound daikon radish
1/4 cup kosher salt
Instructions
In a small saucepan over medium heat add the vinegar,
water, sugar, and turmeric. Bring to a boil, stirring
to dissolve the sugar.
Remove from heat and allow it to cool.
Meanwhile, peel the daikon radish and slice into
1/4-inch thick rounds. (If your daikon is very large,
slice the rounds into semicircles. ) Place in a
colander with salt and mix well. Place the colander
over a bowl and let drain for 1 hour. Rinse the salt
off with a couple of changes of water and dry the
daikon well. Put into a sterilized glass jar. Pour the
cooled brine through a coffee filter (or a cheesecloth
lined strainer) into the jar to cover the radish
slices. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, preferably
overnight.
Will keep for about 2 weeks.

by Connie Carlton
This traditional Chinese favorite is a wonderful vegetarian entrée when prepared with tofu. Use either firm tofu or the more flavorful baked, pressed tofu if you can find it. Serve this simple dish with a salad of sliced cucumbers in rice wine vinegar and steamed asparagus. Sliced oranges make a great dessert.

12 ounces firm tofu, cut in cubes
4 cups cooked, cooled brown rice
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup fresh or frozen green peas
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon dark (roasted) sesame oil
1. In a wok or large skillet, heat the olive oil, and quickly sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger, stirring constantly with a large spoon.
2. Add the tofu and warm it through.
3. Add the rice, stirring and turning it to mix it with the other ingredients and warm it through. Add the soy sauce and mix well.
4. Add the peas, cilantro, and sesame oil, and mix well.
