Next thought is hot and sour cabbage. I have onions, garlic, and chile flake of course plus vinegar in abundance. A plan is coming together.

How to Make Red Chile Tomato Salsa
Salsa can be either mild or spicy but the stuff in the jar is not nearly as good as what I can make at home. It is also cheaper. Damn, I threw away that last grocery receipt so you will have to trust me.
Slow Cooked Pork Chops in Onion Gravy
My mother did not make smothered pork chops. She was Southern but pork chops were rarely on the menu, perhaps never come to think about it.
Pork Tongue in Green Chile with Corn
I purchased a few of the often maligned pieces of tasty meat and will cook them in green chile. Another episode of Ugly Food follows.
Curried Ground Turkey with Coconut Milk, Corn and Cabbage
I do not love ground turkey. It is mostly too lean for my taste. Today, it was on sale, in a smaller package, cooks fairly quick, and I could work with it.
Peruano Beans with Bacon My Way
Today’s selection are Peruano beans. They are a light buff or yellow pole bean usually from Mexico although they were originally cultivated in Peru.
Potato Sausage Ragu
It has currently been 12 days since my last shop and protein is getting thin. I do however have a few hot Italian sausages in the freezer for just such a situation.
Jicama Pickles
Pickles are a great way to add an acidic bite to any meal. The tartness helps cut through the taste of richer foods. Many vegetables are good candidates and Jicama is one of my favorites.
I Eat Ugly Food
I eat ugly food, I do, most days at least twice a day.
Lemon Oregano Chicken
I had a friend who loved all things Greece. She had this dish first on a Mediterranean shore and is dish she cooked fairly often.
