Cabbage Soup
Cabbage soup
Ingredients
0.6-1.0 lb boneless beef stew or sirloin cut ½ inch
1 average size carrot
2 medium size russet potatoes
½ medium onion
1 medium round or 2 plump tomatoes
1 medium size sweet pepper
½ fresh green cabbage
1 small celery stalk
6-8 cups of water or beef stock
¾ teaspoon of salt (you can add more later)
If cooking on a regular stove, make beef broth from beef stew (or other beef meats), onion, and salt. You can also use canned broth instead. While the broth is cooking, cut your vegetables to the size and form you like. Cabbage should be cut/sliced using a special technique or shredded. Put cut potatoes and carrots into the boiling broth and cook for 10 min. Then add sweet pepper, celery, and cabbage and cook for 10-15 min. Chopped or sliced tomatoes should go last.
If cooking in a slow cooker , add all ingredients, including beef, at the same time.

Madeline's Pickles
about 30 medium pickling cucumbers.
8 cups of sugar
2 tblsp.pickling spices
5 tsp. pickling salt
4 cups cider vinegar

1st- cover whole cucumbers with boiling salt water for 3 days.
change water everday.

2nd.- Drain on 4th day.
Slice cucs into 1/2 in. or so cubes.

Combine spices,sugar,vinegar and bring to a boil. Pour over the cucs and let sit overnight.

The next day bring to a boil again and pack and process for 30 minutes in boiling water bath.


Salsa
4 cups,peeled cored and chopped tomatoes
2 cups seeded,chopped long green peppers
1 cup seeded,chopped hot peppers
3/4 cup chopped onion

This ones almost like your Tommaseena,

Potatoes

Onions
Only about 1/2 to 3/4 of the mayo you'd normaly use
Bacon bits
thousand island dressing to take up the slack in mayo

May need to play around with it to suit tasts though.

And I'f I'm in the mood I may add baby shrimp.

Enjoy

SWEET TEA???
Okay ladies I lived in South Carolina as a child and LOVED sweet tea, anyone know how to make it as I would love the recipe.

Thanks,

RE

I LOVE MY SWEET TEA!
RE, I use Louisanne Brand tea bags, use 3 family size bags per 1 gallon of tea. I love my tea really sweet, so I use 2 cups of sugar. 1 1/2 cups may do you though. Add enough cold water and ice to make a gallon. Pour over ice (I love a lot of ice), and enjoy!

I hope you enjoy!
