Swamp Cabbage Recipe – SO Delicious

They call it Swamp Cabbage and I’m sharing the Swamp Cabbage Recipe with you here today.  It’s SO Delicious!!!

As soon as I heard the name at that little outdoor booth along the World’s Longest Yard Sale – I knew I had to have a bowl.

Geezer said, “Now it doesn’t sound too good to ME – let’s just get one bowl and share it so we can taste it and you can write your story on it.”

SO we did that but after just one bite – Geezer said “Ok I’m going to go get another bowl – I can see we’re going to need 2 bowls of this.”

“A year ago this weekend – we spent the first night in Crossville, Tennessee … so we could start out about where we left off the year before and we headed north along the World’s Longest Yard Sale.  But it was so hot that year we didn’t even want to try the whole route again. Too many professional vendors anyway – and I think the best part of the whole route from Alabama to Ohio was from Signal Mountain to Clarkrange – so we played it safe …
As a matter of fact – in Clarkrange is where we had that Swamp Cabbage and my goodness that stuff is just as good and mysterious as it sounds.  HOW could so few ingredients taste SO GOOD?

Swamp Cabbage Recipe

It’s a concoction of diced cabbage and onion with just the right amount of diced tomatoes and peppers and spices and I’m sharing the recipe with you today.  And listen – it may sound like something that Pa and Ma Kettle would have for supper – but you wouldn’t be embarrassed to serve this to anyone.  It’s absolutely delicious beyond description – SO here we go …
1 large head cabbage
1 large sweet onion
1 lb. ground beef
1 large bell pepper diced
1 16 oz can diced tomatoes
1 16 oz can tomato sauce
1 16 oz can tomato juice
1 jalapeno pepper
salt, pepper, seasoned salt and remember?  I put Cayenne in EVERYTHING!
You all know the drill – brown the ground beef and onions – and add that and the drippings to the rest and cook in a pot until done.  

This stuff is absolutely delicious with corn bread.  In fact, I think I’ll make some in the next day or so.”

I think you’ll love this recipe.  It’s SO good and has a very full flavor and you’ll want more and more.  Once you have a bowl of this it’s going to be like eating a Lay’s Potato Chip – you won’t be able to stop with one.

It’s really even low carb and calorie – so it’s a healthy fall or winter soup TOO.
