Looks like we're all coconut fans, just talking about it makes me want to do up a batch of macaroons lol. We're big cabbage lovers as well, and sauerkraut. Bubba and her mom just did up a big batch of holopchi (Ukrainian sour cabbage rolls) on Sunday.

Yesterday I spent lots of time in the kitchen and made 8 stuffed peppers using antelope hamburger with the rice, we had one each for supper and froze the rest in pairs for easy suppers in the coming weeks.

Bubba and I do the NYT Wordle and Canukle (Canadian version of Wordle) every morning over breakfast lol. We all seem to have so much in common!

[Ginger999]

ABC, we do have lots in common! And if you can find one thing positive about AL, it's that it brought us all together. It would never have happened otherwise. See what I did there? I made lemonade! Lol

I'll take another day!

I've done my homework and read some things about coconut and cholesterol, and it seems the thinking currently continues to lean toward avoiding coconut oil due to high saturated fats content, as you said, Cowboy. But coconut is high in fiber which is good for lowering cholesterol. So to me, using coconut in recipes is probably very safe for people with heart disease. I will also still use coconut oil when I prepare our Thai food favorites, but we don't eat them very often. Moderation is the key. I guess. Here's a short link about coconut oil and cholesterol from a trusted source: Don't get tricked by these 3 heart-health myths - Mayo Clinic


Cowboy, Hungarian Cabbage Rolls are one of my absolute favorites! And the stuffed peppers tucked away in the freezer are a great idea.

That was some delicious lemonade, Ginger! I couldn't agree more.

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

Mmmm...all of this food talk is making me hungry! Cowboy, stuffed peppers using antelope hamburger sounds yummy!

24 more for all of us please...

Good morning Cafe. Cowboy your food sounds great. I am also a big sauerkraut lover! Dill, not only do I add coconut to Cole slaw but a few dried cranberries as well. I’m attaching a recipe if you would like to try it. Rain today expected. Hope everyone has a great and sober day. 24 more please and thank you.

Thanks for the recipe Rava, I'm going to pass it along to Bubba.

I liked your lemonade Ginger, you can keep making it!

Thanks for the link dill, I think you said it best when you said everything in moderation. Bubba and I try to eat as healthy as we can but not to the extent that we cut out the things we enjoy eating.

Our cold spell has started moving in, -15C (5F) here this morning with colder temps and lots of snow in the forecast starting tomorrow.

[Ginger999]

Brrrrrrrr, ABC. I can't imagine those temps! Rava, thanks for the recipe. Sounds yummy.

Waves to Dill, Jude, Mul and anyone else stopping by. Off to morning exercise. I'll take some more lemonade!

[Jude58]

Those are some pretty chilly temps cowboy! It's 40

[Jude58]

degrees here with snow expected later. 24 more please...

[dill]

35F here. Snow is in the forecast. Ugh

Rava, thank you for the recipe. That's really sweet of you to take the time to do that. I will definitely give it a try.

Have to head out to my volunteer job now. 24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.
