Day 26

What's on the menu:

Polska Kielbasa and steamed cabbage
Homemade applesauce
Cornbread muffins

In my electric frying pan I fry two strips of bacon until crisp and done. I chop my cabbage into small pieces and add to bacon drippings. I go ahead and season with salt, pepper and a little sugar as it does not take long for cabbage to steam. On top of cabbage I add the polska kielbasa (Hillshire Farm) that has been cut into one inch pieces and add 1/4 cup water. Put the top on the electric frying pan and let cook about 35 minutes or until cabbage is steamed to the consistency you like.

Applesauce

Peel and slice apples into a large pot
Add enough water to about half the level of the apples

Cook and stir until apples start cooking some. Then add top to pot and turn heat to medium and even lower as it starts to thicken. Do not walk away and leave your pot as it may scorch or burn. Continue to stir every few minutes.

When apples are all cooked apart add a little sugar at a time until the taste is to your liking. You do not have to add sugar but I do like some sugar to mine. When the applesauce is done, I add just a small piece of butter.

Dip into hot jars and seal.

Cornbread muffins
I use the Jiffy box kind and the directions are on the back of box.
