This is a reminder that farmers and ranchers are critical every day – even when times are good. Some producers may be thinking it’s all for not as markets take hits, and row croppers are struggling to get into their fields because of continuous rains. We have to remember consumers are counting on us. Like many of you, I’ve gone to the grocery store in recent weeks and found some things on my list out of stock. Bread was scarce, so I decided I would make my own. I had some flour, but not enough, and my yeast was old, so down the baking aisle I went, only to discover it empty. I bought frozen hot rolls instead.

Combine cabbage, tomatoes with juice, onion, Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper in a large pot over low heat. Bring mixture to a simmer and crumble ground beef into the pot (I like to brown lightly before adding to mixture). Cover and cook until cabbage is tender and ground beef is cooked through, about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally.
