Char-Grilled Cabbage Steaks with Whole Grain Mustard Sauce
Delightfully delicious, Char-Grilled Cabbage Steaks with Whole Grain Mustard Sauce will quickly become a grilling staple. When char-grilled the cabbage takes on a sweet, buttery, smokey flavor; and the steak edges get a bit crispy adding a layer of texture to the tender bite of the cabbage. The tang and texture of whole grain mustard blends well with a creamy base and compliments the flavors of the char-grilled cabbage, adding a pop of excitement.
Speaking Up to Support Neighbors Facing Hunger
A lot changed for Joe after a medical emergency last year. No longer able to work, he found himself needing help with food for the first time. Now Joe is sharing his story and using his voice to support food access programs—and all the people who use them.
Panko Crusted Baked Tomato Slices
An abundance of late summer tomatoes and a chilly evening inspired this recipe. After a rather dormant summer for my oven, the cool nights began to roll in signaling the beginning of the menu changes. With the addition of a few simple ingredients and a good dose of love the tomatoes were transformed into Panko Crusted Baked Tomato Slices, the result was spectacular! After the recipe photo shoot there were plenty of volunteers to help with the "clean-up".
Triple Your 3SquaresVT Money
Triple your 3SquaresVT dollars at farmers markets this summer! Many farmers markets in the state of Vermont participate in a NOFA-VT program called Crop Cash. At these markets, when you swipe your EBT card (the plastic card that 3SquareSVT benefits come on), you can get up to $40 in free coupons to shop with.
