| I love your ideas I have to go though them all when I get time later :) I would suggest tho for a sleever halving the amount of cabbage, the same for any other bulkie vegtable/pasta/rice item in any other cooking. The main reason for this is to reduce the over all bulk of the meal whil increasing the protien ratio up. If you tried to eat this with a sleeve you wouldnt finish a serve so halving the bulkie cabbage means you would get close to it getting your full serve of protien :) applesauce | |
