Pineapple Cabbage
So with all the talk of there being extra ingredients in foods we find in the store I have been ever more diligent to eat an unprocessed food diet with my kids. My favorite place to shop is the farmers market, which is a bit of a drive but worth it for the fresh food that I get.However I am still a busy mom and things have to be quick and easy for me to get things done. I thought that since I like to do easy, fast recipes that others may find them handy.
So for this first one is an odd mix that I threw together in my kitchen because it was all the fresh food I had left at the time.
For ingredients the number of people eating in my family is 3, which we eat about the same as 2 grown adults.
Sesame Oil/Olive Oil1/2 small pineapple
1/3 purple cabbage
Salt, onion powder to taste
1 cup dry brown rice, cooked to instruction
Preheat the frying pan with Sesame or Olive Oil, just enough to not burn the cabbage
Cook down the cabbage on a medium heat until it is thoroughly warm, the crispness of the cabbage is up to you, I prefer softer with a little crunch. Once the cabbage is cooked down add the pineapple and continue to cook on medium heat until the pineapple is soft. Season to taste.
Once rice is cooked add soy sauce to taste, serve warm.
