Hello Toddson!!!!
This recipe replaces the noodles with sliced lunch meat
I EAT keto, and this seems weird to me. I basically replace lasagne with a casserole that includes all the ingredients except the noodles, and a vegetable. I will say that cabbage leaves made and baked liked stuffed shells was actually a hit at my family’s 2019 Christmas. I made a regular lasagne for them and the cabbage stuffed shells for me, and my mom and uncle both liked the cabbage version.
I thought I spied Aurelia—. If you are here, I think I remember that you work for The Guthrie? The costume designer for The Little Prince (Olivera) is someone I have worked with at the UR. Those are some fun costumes!
Did I miss a memo somewhere?
Apparently, we as a society have completely moved on from placing our gifts in boxes and then wrapping those gifts in paper. Instead, we are now REQUIRED to put our gifts in a festively-decorated gift bag. Because said gift boxes are unavailable for purchase ANYWHERE, and even if you ask the retailer to include a box with your gift purchase, they will give you one of these gift bags instead.

I love cabbage, so this sounds delicious! And similar to Eastern European dishes.
Thank you Tom for saving me from trying to look for a box. I was thinking about it because I have a t-shirt, a back pack and a poncho to wrap.
Gift boxes are a weird thing to me, because my family didn’t do them. The stores we shopped at were not fancy enough to have boxes. Then I worked at JCPenney (which I grew up thinking was a fancy store- much like I grew up thinking Olive Garden was a fancy restaurant) and there were boxes galore. So now I am a little embarrassed to wrap thinks without boxes, but I am not going to buy gift bags when I have wrapping paper already!

It is very similar, I think. Italian American and 1940’s/50’s American are the only two things I can cook without at least reading several recipes, so they tend to be the things I can make keto without having to look up a specific recipe. (PS radishes and rutabaga are really good in things like stew or casseroles where you would use potato). But I would definitely try an Eastern European stuffed cabbage, as I, too, LOVE cabbage.
Hi Todd!
Mmm, stuffed cabbage is one of my favorites.
My mom worked in the gift wrap department of JCPenney or maybe Macy's, some department store, and she has kept up her skills but I think even she has mostly gone mostly to gift bags. Possibly because they are easier to find. Possibly because they are easy to reuse, which we all do a lot of (we used to carefully unwrap gifts and save the paper so we could use it again later)
The fancy restaurant down the street from me occasionally serves cabbage rolls stuffed with beef, pork, rice, and tomato sauce, and they are incredibly good. Better than all their other dishes except maybe braised leg of lamb.

Wrong midwest regional starting with a G. I'm at the Goodman.
Travel plans are now cancelled. I did get my car back with the window repaired and I probably could get there before the bomb cyclone hits, but I don't think Gilda can do 8 hours in the car. So I'll get some groceries in the morning and hunker down.
We are supposed to fly out Thursday mid-morning, and the other options don’t really work well so we’re riding the knife edge and hoping the storm trends late rather than early.
The forecast for Christmas day here is a high of 61, which means we break out the parkas (if we owned them). This is kind of a bummer because the kids won't be able to go to the beach. I plan to make my bedroom into kid zone with the tv for YouTube or movies or whatever. I have a huge beanbag and will have lots of pillows so they can sprawl wherever. There are only 5 little ones so it should be okay. They just want to play on their devices anyway.
It is supposed to be 47 here overnight on Christmas Eve!! Exciting stuff. It means iguana drop which is amusing and freaks out the tourists.
