Happy Holidays !!!
Christmas is over for another year and New Years Day is right around the corner. Then it will be time to take a rest from holidays until February 14. I know that 2/14 is some holiday, I think, what is it? Oh well, it will come to me. No snow and temps in the 40's here in central New York make it hard to believe that it's almost time to welcome in another new year. Not that I'm complaining about the weather it's just, WOW, another new year already. Good golly gee whiz, where does the time go? I've always heard how time flies but this is super-sonic.I only have one New Years resolution and that will be to pay closer attention to my blogs. I vow to post more often and I will try to have more useful and interesting posts with more "how to do-it" posts and more recipes for quick and easy meals and snacks. I hope you will come back soon.  Write to you later, bye for now.

One Pan Meals - Sausage and Cabbage

  I just love 1 pan meals, less clean-up!  I make a lot of 1 pan meals over the course of a year, but I make this one several times a year. I not sure if you would call it a goulash or a slaw so I just call it dinner. You can use as many pans as you like when making this, I usually just use the electric skillet.
                                                                                                                                                                              Ingredients:   
                           1 -  6" head of green cabbage
                                shredded as fine or course as you like                       
                           1lb. sausage or hamburg
                            1 -  large onion, diced
                            2 cups uncooked fine egg noodles
                            1 - stick of butter  
                             salt and pepper     
  Bring a couple quarts of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles. Drain and set aside. Crumble the meat into the pan and cook until done, add some oil if the meat is very lean,  drain and set aside. Melt the butter in the pan using medium heat. Add the onion and cabbage, simmer covered, stirring every 5 minutes, for about 20 min. or until the cabbage is cooked to your desired tenderness. If it starts to stick, add a little more butter. Stir in the meat and egg noodles, heating for about another 10 minutes, serve and enjoy.
   I usually serve it with a generous coating of shredded cheese.  I have also served it with a little marinara sauce or Alfredo sauce on top. Make it taste the way you like it to taste, serve it with you in mind.
