In my adventure to make half of each meal fruits and vegetables, and get away from making meat the central part of dinner, I knew I needed the kids to be involved in planning meals. Although when I asked the flip-flopper to help me plan a menu, she assumed we were going to make a menu for the family to choose from at each meal (much like a restaraunt). She immediately began scouring the cookbooks and creating an actual menu. Then she told the boys we were going to start having choices at dinnertime.
Good thing I was listening to them talk to eachother. “WOAHHH!!! Slow down, flip-flopper. I didn’t mean a menu of choices for each meal. I mean, let’s make a list of meals you like, and we’ll assign each meal a day during the month. Not all in one night.”
Anyway, she ear marked a cabbage salad she thought looked good. And boy was it GOOD! We changed it up a bit, and came up with this recipe. The dressing was some greek yogurt (thanks to Kristi for introducing us), brown sugar, and vanilla. The flip-flopper thought it tasted almost like caramel apples. Cereal boy liked it, and ketchup boy accidently let his ketchup touch his apples, and then wouldn’t eat it. When I make this again, I’ll use more cabbage. The shredded cabbage clinged to the apple’s so well, you almost didn’t realize it was there. Definitely a repeat!
