September has been a good month for the garden.  Lots to harvest, including some beautiful cabbage and onions delivered to the Pantry and Lewis House yesterday.
Here, one of our favorite simple side dish recipes:

1 head cabbage
2 medium onions
2 Tbsp. oil or butter
Salt and any preferred seasonings - garlic, pepper, fennel, etc.

Quarter the cabbage and cut out the core.   Slice onions and cabbage as thinly as possible.  Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil or butter. When hot, add the onions, sprinkle them with seasonings, and cook about 3 minutes. Add the cabbage, more seasonings, reduce heat to low, and cook covered, until  tender, about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally and add a tablespoon or two of water if necessary.

Enjoy!
