Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

I received a huge head of cabbage from the food pantry so I had to do something with it... I haven't had stuffed cabbage rolls in years! This was officially my first time making them on my own. I cheated a little but the faster the better, I don't have 100 hours to make things.

cabbage leaves before I blanched it.

The cabbage leaves cooling & the ground turkey and onions.

Another batch of leaves & I mixed the tomato paste in with the meat and onions.

I added the rice to the meat mixture then I began to roll.

I poured a jar of spaghetti sauce on the rolls and ended up baking them for about an hour and a half until the cabbage cut easily with a fork. (I actually didn't care for the spaghetti sauce, if & when I make it again I'll make a tomato sauce).

I didn't really follow a recipe, I more or less went off of what I remembered from being young when my mom made it. This is a page of stuffed cabbage recipes on Pinterest (if you really need a recipe)

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By Gail Greenberg & Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I will switch some things around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streus...

Johnny Mango's Shrimp Fried Rice with Fiery Lime Sauce

I have been craving this for about 6yrs and I am SOOOOO HAPPY that there is a recipe! I do still want to go to Johnny Mango World Cafe & Bar but until then I will try to recreate it myself.
