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.
Fried Rice with Yum Yum Sauce
For the crispiest fried rice, use leftover long-grain rice, such as jasmine. Freshly cooked rice and/or short-grain rice will be stickier and fail to crisp.
Deep-Fried Dandelions
These crispy battered and fried dandelion flowers taste amazing! They make a great appetizer or you can sprinkle some on a green salad for added crunch factor. These edible flowers are nutritional powerhouses, bursting with vitamin C.
