It does not happen often but yesterday I had a sleep day, this only worked because Dh was working from home, I did get up and make some meals and even had a bit of a visit or two.. but overall it was as lazy of a day as it can get.. DH did morning and evening chores, plus some house chores, and even made lunch for us, he worked and I slept.. I must have needed it, the rules were simple, no reading, no music, while in bed, if I was tired and went to bed, then I would sleep or I would get up and get myself into gear.. turns out my body was not lying, I slept most of the day, but I needed a make it and forget it meal..
I made a odd cabbage roll recipe but it turned out very good indeed so thought I would share it with you..I am assuming that you know how to make cabbage rolls already.. so I cooked up half a pd of lamb burger, with some onion and then added to it a 1/2 cup of green pepper pasta sauce and 1/4 cup of cooked sqaush, then stuffed the leaves to which I poured over a mix of Green Tomato and Green Pepper Pasta Sauces and baked for an hour and half till everything was tender an smelled heavenly.. I poured the sauce over them an then served with a dollop of yogurt, so good!



I’m sure that if I go digging about in my mountain of cookbooks I’d come across a recipe for Green Tomato and Green Pepper Pasta Sauces. I’m assuming here that we’re talking about 2 sauces? The Green Tomato Sauce has my full attention.
I am fortunate to have a “tomato farm” nearby (I don’t have room for gardening yet; need to relocate) and they grow tomatoes in hoop garden houses as soon as the season begins until fall frost. They have a steady supply of green tomatoes and I would love to try another green tomato recipe.
I fell in love with Hungarian/Russian sliced green tomato “salad” and made some this summer. I’ve been making green tomato piccalili since I helped my grandmother as a youngun’. I did try a jar of locally-made green tomato sweet pickle slices, but will stick to bread’n butter cukes and Sunshine Pickle.
But a Green Tomato sauce? I’d love that recipe!
Hi Brenda
Its way to simple, I just take big green tomato’s, onion, garlic an apple cider vinager, and simmer it down into a thick sauce with salt, pepper, and can it up, If you like the taste of fried green tomato, then you will like green tomato sauce. Its a bit more chunky then the red or green pepper sauce.
The pepper sauce is pretty much the same, but I blend the green peppers, onion and garlic and then simmer down to a thick sauce and then can..
They are really good and easy to make..
Thanks so very much. Adding to my “recipe” list for next year. Will have to report back .. if I can remember …
This sounds delicious!
And about your day of rest : )
