I have alot of scallions and cabbage that I want to use, any suggestions?

I really like that pickled cabbage that is a condiment for pupusas, I would love a good recipe for that as well.

    cabbage = minestrone soup

    http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/hearty-minestrone-with-barley-sage-beans-10000001571488/

    Just made it this past week. Very hearty, good flavor, you'll have plenty of leftovers for a quick lunch. Nutrition facts posted on the site.

    ::edit:: or you could make something chinese (like lettuce wraps, only with cabbage) just hit up Allrecipes.com and look for sweet and sour chicken, most chinese dishes use scallions :)

    My mom, who is on a doctor supervised weight loss regime, takes the cabage and slices it ike you would for coleslaw. She puts it in a casserole dish layering it with her favorite spice, cajun, and just about a 1/4 inch of water then bakes it for about an hour I think she said. It carmelizes and is quite tastey. I would use different spices if I were to do it so they would compliment the cabbage. Just a thought.

    Easy one for me, Cabbage/ Boneless chicken soup, I'd put it all in a crockpot and there you go!

    Something simple....soup. Add some noodles, a little spice. If you have some morsels of beef, throw that in too.

    Sounds good, I already have about 4 1/2 cups shredded, it sounds like something different I will try it, thanks!

    There are alot of recipes out there for a oriental cabbage slaw. I've had several variations & all delicious!! Do a search on allrecipes.com. It has cabbage, scallions, soy sauce, some kind of vinegar, usually some kind of nut, either pine nuts or sunflower seeds. Some recipes even have crunched up ramen noodles mixed in. Seriously, search the recipes, yummy!

    Just threw some in the crock with some diced tomatoes and seasonings (garlic, basil, bay leaf, onion powder). I also added some yellow squash and boneless chicken breast. Im considering tossing in some celery and carrots and maybe some barley or brown rice, undecided yet.

    I like to slice cabbage really thin; saute chopped scallions in evoo then add cabbage, I like a little sweetness so I sprinkle it with splenda or if you like sugar, cook cabbage till tender, then add a can of lite beer and cook till nice and tender. Season it the way you like it. Salt, pepper, cayenne gives it a little kick, etc.:smile: The beer is optional, I have used green tea also.

    I might be odd, but I love cabbage steamed just as it is. Take a wedge and put it in a steamer or steam in the microwave. A little butter and a little salt and pepper and it's delicious. I also add it raw and shredded to tacos and salads and add it into the veggies when I make a stir fry.
