Just wanted to remind you lovely lot about this lovely warming and low calorie vegetable.
Goes really well with all sorts of things, but I'm planning to enjoy some later in the week with some pan fried turkey steaks marinated in orange juice and ginger.
All the flavours of Autumn and the festive season!
Made a BIG pot (8 portions) and have frozen it.

A good recipe, Pineapple! It's a lot like my Grandma's rotkohl (German red cabbage! ). My Mom doesn't like it so she never made it. So it always reminds me of Grandma. Might have to add it to the menu over the weekend!
Are you sure only 90 cals pers erving?? I cooked the blood sugar diet red cabbage recipe yesterday, there's no sugar in it, olive oil instead of butter and comes out at 367 cals per serving and only takes 1hr to cook.
I used the food database I usually use and entered all of the ingredients. It makes 8 smallish portions (vegetable portion rather than a main course).
How much oil does the Diet Doctor recipe use? I was happy for this to take the cooking time - it had very little liquid. I've done a stove top version before, but I prefer this recipe....
Here are the figures!
The number at the end is the calories for each ingredient.
For just 2 servings, it tells you to use 3 tblsps of olive oil, which is 384 calories (or 192 calories per person!) before you've added anything else. The only fat I used was the 15g of butter (110 calories in total divided by 8 = 13 calories per head)
I've done a few of the Diet Doctor cabbage recipes - having one tonight actually, the stuffed cabbage casserole. But I never use the amount of oil or fat or cream they state - just sounds far too rich and sickly!
Ooops, I'll take it back Pineapple, seems myfitness pal didn't divide the butter by 8, so even though it doesn't use sugar both recipes are approx same cals.
