When I sat down to plan this week’s menu my goal was to start using the veggies that came in my new 40 pound vegetable box. We got so many beets and more cabbage than I would ever want. Cabbage is not my favorite, so I’m always looking for ways to use it and want to get it out of the way quickly. Here are some of the meals I’ve come up with for the week.
