Crockpot Beef & Cabbage Casserole *

Growing up my Mom would make stuffed cabbage…little rolls of cabbage with a ground beef/rice mixture tucked inside and a yummy tomato sauce poured over top. It was one of my favorite meals as a kid. This is my take on a quicker/easier way to get that same deliciousness. Just put everything in a crock-pot and allow it to cook slowly, letting the flavors meld together, gently. It is sooooo good, especially if you serve it over some hot cooked brown rice. Tastes just like Mom’s…only easier

But in comes this healthy soy sauce substitute that is easy to make and comes pretty close to tasting like the real thing…without all of the dangers. So now I can have my chop suey and eat it too! And so can you

Green Chili-Chicken & Rice Casserole

This green-chili casserole is a complete meal all wrapped into one, just serve with a side salad if you wish. The casserole is easy to throw together and can be made ahead a day or two in advance.. Simply place the unbaked casserole, covered, in the refrigerator. When ready to bake, uncover and place in the oven as it preheats. Bake as usual, though it may take about 5 more minutes to heat through.

The simple flavors of garlic and ginger in this stir-fry really let the vegetables shine. So be sure to use plenty of vegetables that you enjoy. I used broccoli, onion, red bell pepper, and red cabbage. But feel free to substitute what you like.
