Cabbage and Kielbasa

My husband actually came up with this recipe, and it's one of our FAVORITE, inexpensive dishes!  I love cooking in iron pots & iron skillets.  If you've never tried cooking in iron, something about it improves the taste.  I thought I was imagining this, but I actually tried the same recipe in other types of cookware... pyrex, stainless, etc.

Here's what you will need:

CAST IRON POT

1 head of green cabbage
2 packages of Eckrich Farms Kielbasa
2 green bell pepper (can use red, yellow... or combination)
1 vidalia onion, (white or red will suffice)
2 tbls. canola or olive oil
Cajun Spice (Weber N'Orleans Cajun Spice... or Camp Dog Cajun Seasoning **see below for where to find)

Cut cabbage into chunks, slice pepper and onion.  Cut kielbasa into 1" sections.  Put oil in bottom of pot to prevent sticking.  Layer; kielbasa, cabbage, seasoning, pepper, onion, cabbage, kielbasa, seasoning, pepper, onion... until you've used all your ingredients.  I don't measure my cajun spice... because I LIKE a LOT!  Some of you may not like that much.  I put my cast iron pot top on, and cook on 425 degrees until the cabbage is tender.  Be careful when removing the pot top, the steam is HOT and can possibly burn you!  Cook at your own risk... he he.  We're all adults, right!?

Layer and season to your liking

As if you though you couldn't improve on this tastey, quick meal... try cooking it over an open fire!

AND if you're pot is too full... just do this!

Let me know what you think!  To find seasonings:

Thanks for reading!  Have a blessed day!

Growing Future Outdoor Sportsmen and Sportswomen

What a weekend!  First we got snow, then we had the opportunity to go to our local Wildlife Management Area to look for sheds, rubs, tracks, scat, skeletal remains... or anything else we could find out there in the woods.  My husband and I enjoy getting the kids outdoors so they can experience nature first hand.  Our initial intent was to look for sheds.  Although we didn't find any sheds, we enjoyed what we did find, and the time we spent together, as a family.   Just as we entered the woods, I told my children to watch for dogs.  People are constantly dropping dogs off in these woods.  They toss pups they've killed, and often times dump them in nearby streams and watersheds.  I've even discovered whole litters of starving pups with an empty bag of torn open dog feed that had been left with them.  It's really sad.  It's also dangerous to people entering the WMA because the dogs are starving, wild, and afraid. Dog remains...

Totally Transformed

So... these days I take a lot of selfies... mainly because I cannot believe the woman in the mirror is actually me.  It’s taken a very very long time to work my way through a multitude of insecurities.  I’m here... or there now.  I love the reflection I see in the mirror these days.  It’s been difficult swallowing my sorrows and pains each time I’d pass a looking glass.  I’m here now... with a new found confidence.  I will finally finish my Education degree and become the teacher I never thought I would become!  I’m so thankful for this opportunity as it offers a freedom that many will never understand.  As for now... I’m enjoying the new me and all the wonderful friends I have accumulated over the past two years because of my transformation.  I’m also thankful for learning what I will and will not accept in my life... or my children’s.  Be blessed ❤️ Love SAM

Back to my Roots

Being outdoors is as natural to me as breathing.  I don't know what I would do if I didn't have the opportunity to venture out from time to time.  I'm thankful my family enjoys fishing and hunting as much as I do, and I'm hoping to do more of it this year than I ever have.  Over the past few months, we've been doing a LOT of fishing.  Since my homeschooling days, I don't get to get on my blog as often, and the topics I cover have somewhat changed.  I'm hoping, however, to get back to my roots and start incorporating my outdoor life with healthy living and eating habits.  First and foremost, I'm thankful for my husband and children.  They are the very air I breath and a blessing from God above. A couple weeks back my, on a rainy day in Georgia, my husband, my children and I drove up to a beautiful serene river in settled in the lower banks of the Northeast Georgia Mountains.  We each had our fishing poles in hand and made a half-mile trek throu...
