finished!

Believe me, I know.  I would be hard pressed to think up a less inspiring name if I tried:  Cabbage.  WOOOO! Casserole. PAAAARTY!! Despite the handicap, this is one of my all-time favorite recipes. This has an excellent cabbage-caraway flavor  combination that I’ve seen used in a few other things (piroshky!) It is perfect for cooler days when you want something to stick to your ribs.  Plus it’s full of good stuff, so you don’t need to feel bad about the bacon and sour cream on top.

this tastes great.

Honestly, part of the reason I love this meal is nostalgia.  This recipe came from my mom, and I’m pretty sure she got it from her mother (or maybe a book that she got from her mother?  Whatever.)   It’s something I grew up with, and let it be known that my mother is a darned good cook.  As a kid, though, I didn’t really appreciate this fact nearly enough…  funny how dorm food can bring something like that into perspective.  MoM makes this whenever I go back to Spokane to visit, and it’s still great.  Test of time: passed.
