Slaw-not-slaw

I am so glad the CSA season is finally here. I tend to be a more adventurous cook when every week I bring home a box of unknown ingredients and need to fit a menu around them. Not to mention I eat lots more healthy stuff than during the carb-loading winter months, when all I crave is comfort food.

This week among the bounty was a head of cabbage. Now I’m not much of a cabbage eater; the obvious dish is cole slaw, which has never much appealed to me. But in digging through blogland I came across a recipe that looked to be worth trying. So good! Not a creamy-type cole slaw; really a cabbage salad with tomatoes, peanuts and a lime-olive dressing. We grilled up a couple of burgers and mounded the salad on the side. So tasty. I might learn to enjoy cabbage yet. Later this week: rustic cabbage soup.
