You're such an inspiration!

We've been doing sort of the ...Hello Kat!<br /> We've been doing sort of the same thing, going through and using up what we have in the cellar, pantry and freezers. Last night we had fried ham slices( cubed into bite sized pieces), then fried onion, garlic(3 cloves, we LOVE it) until tender, added a wee... bit more olive oil, potatoes( chopped small), cabbage and carrots shredded. stirring to prevent burning until tender, then added the ham back in and finally added a secret ingredient I just learned about; Balsmic vinegar and stir until it looks like it's carmelizing. BOY howdy was it good! <br /><br />We have a lot of onions left, so I think we'll concentrate on dehydrating them and the garlic we're going to pickle and put some in olive oil. The squash are gone and we have two heads of cabbage left, so I'm thinking cabbage buns, sooner than later*wink*<br /><br />Blessings to your day and we too are looking forward to Spring and the green crops it brings!<br />KelleKelle at The Never Done Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089557752054842197noreply@blogger.com
