Like many other college seniors, I am living off campus and providing food for myself, without my parents or a college meal plan, for the first time in my life.

Baked Cabbage Stacks
If you’re like me sometimes you open your produce drawer to find small amounts of this and that; not quite enough to make a single ingredient side dish but certainly enough to inspire a recipe. That’s what happened here. A cabbage on hand, a handful of mushrooms, a couple of carrots, an onion or two and a few panty staples inspired this dish. I served the Baked Cabbage Stacks over steamed rice and topped with a fried egg. Lots of flavor, nicely balanced and enjoyed by the family; another dinner done!

Roasted Rainbow Radishes
Roasted Rainbow Radishes are a burst of sunlight on a rainy day! Purple daikon and watermelon radishes pair up in this beautiful roasted radish dish. A drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper is all it takes to make this rainbow appear. Purple daikon and watermelon radishes are part of the winter radish family; winter radishes are sowed in late summer or early fall and take 8-10 weeks to mature and are ready to harvest before winter sets in, making them perfect for winter storage.

Peberrod Beetroot Salad
So why the name Peberrod Beetroot Salad? Peberrod, pronounced “pyoor-rood”, is the Danish word for horseradish. I named this salad in honor of a lovely woman who hailed from Denmark; she introduced me to the amazing combination of beetroot and horseradish in the late 80’s, and I continue to use this combination to this day. Thank you Julle! Our simple recipe takes only 10 minutes to make and is guaranteed to brighten your plate.
