Many years ago canned corned beef wasn't bad (it was never good) but
the last time I opened a can (couple years ago) I fed it to the
crows... it made Fancy Feast look and smell more appetizing... I
didn't taste it. I gave the other two cans to a food bank.
I use SPAM for hash about once a month, excellent with potatoes,
onions, and eggs, and sometimes with green peppers too.
Yesterday's dinner was just three ingredients; harvested my last
cabbage (12 pounder, but after trimming the outer leaves and critter
damage was 9 pounds). Rough cut the cabbage filled a 10 qt pot,
sauted/sweated it down to about half and added two 14 oz packs of
Hillshire kielbase sliced into 3/8" coins. Finished cooking it down
and then added a pound package of cooked wide egg noodles, the ruffled
type... delicious, didn't even need s n'p. Plenty left for tonight.
My garden has been all cleaned and prepped for next year, only crop
still remaining are a dozen brussels sprouts plants... a little trick
I learned for larger sprouts is to prune off the top of the stalk.
