As you know, I keep a pantry that has several jars/cans of whatever quick stuff to use - heat and eat.
It just happened that I had some classic Alfredo sauce - Great Value Brand that had a use by date of May 2015. Only 2 carbs per 1/4 cup serving. Plenty for a cup or two of cabbage and a little Broccoli.
As soon as I saw the jar - doing a pantry check, I had this craving for the sauce, especially once I confirmed that the carbs count was small. Did a search and cabbage came up as one suggestion. Cabbage and Broccoli are always on hand these days for quick green legal veggies.
Can you “see” my Happy Face? Big flavor in that sauce! LOL
Only downside - no ice cream tonight. Traded the sat. fat in ice cream for the sat fat in Alfredo Sauce.
All I added was a tsp of EVOO to keep the cabbage from sticking and a little garlic and pepper.
METHOD Sweat 1/8 c sweet butter, thin rounds 2 white part leeks, sliced lge yellow onion. Add 1 1/2 qts chix stock, salt, 2 sprigs thyme, 4 lge peeled potatoes in 1/4" slices. Cook/stir 40 min on med. Add 1/2 c h/cream, BTB.
SERVE hot garnished w/ grated Cheddar, bacon crumbles.
For a complete meal, serve w/ Croque Monsieur (French grilled cheese), pasta-vegetable salad.
Ohhhhhh! That sounds wonderful! I think I’ll need to look into that seriously!!!Love the idea of using with broc and cabbage!
