Produce Picks 3/11/13: Cabbage, Carrots and Onions

Every week Aldi has Produce Picks of the Week which are sales for fresh produce.  They are ridiculously cheap.  I always buy something from the produce picks and will regularly post ways you can prepare them.

Today I bought a head of cabbage for $0.69, 2 pounds of carrots for $0.49 and 3 pounds of onions for $0.69.  With a few more ingredients you can have a delicious and healthy dish.

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 teaspoon of ground cumin
1 teaspoon of tumeric
1/2 of an onion sliced
1 large jalepeno pepper diced
2 carrots peeled and cut into small sticks
3 cups of cabbage that has been shredded or thinly sliced
Sea salt to taste

Directions

1.  Prepare your veggies (shred or slice the cabbage, cut the carrots, slice the onion, and dice the jalepeno pepper).

2.  Over medium heat, heat the oil in a pan.  Then add the onions.  Cook the onions a few minutes until they get soft and start to turn translucent.

3.  Add carrots, jalepeno pepper, cumin and tumeric to the pan.  Cook covered for about 5 minutes until the carrots start to soften.  Stir occasionally.

4.  Add cabbage and salt to pan and mix together all ingredients.  Cook covered for 7-12 minutes until cabbage is soft.  Stir occasionally.

5.  Eat without guilt.
