Mother's Whipped Lime Dessert
Mother made this often this during WW II when sugar was rationed. You can use any flavor gelatin (I personally like the green lime). It is a light sweet especially good after a heavy meal or during warm weather.
Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
This cabbage rolls recipe is super easy to prep with cabbage leaves, ground beef, rice, and condensed tomato soup. I have been using this recipe for well over 20 years and still love it! To speed things up the rolls are cooked in a skillet on the stovetop but this recipe also works well in a slow cooker.
