=======================================================
============== ===
1. Carefully remove 4-6 outer leaves from head cabbage. Rinse these
and red savoy kale leaves; drain, wrap in towels, and enclose in a
plastic bag. To crisp, chill at least 30 minutes or up until next
day.
2. Rinse and drain head cabbage. Trim a thin slice from stem end so
cabbage sits steadily upright. Slice 1/2" horizontally from cabbage
top. Using a grapefruit knife, cut out center of cabbage, leaving a
wall about 1/2" thick. Finely shred trimmed cabbage; discard core.
3. In a bowl, mix shredded savoy with red cabbage. If made ahead, wrap
cabbage shell and shredded cabbage airtight and chill up until next
day.
4. Cook bacon in an 8-10" frying pan over medium-high heat until
brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Crumble and drain on towels. Add
vinegar and pepper to warm drippings in pan.
5. Mix bacon and warm dressing with shredded cabbage. Gently pull
cabbage shell to open bowl slightly; set on a platter and surround
with reserved green and red cabbage leaves. Mound salad into cabbage

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting tipsIf you wish to become slim and boost your all round health, then, as any dietician will tell you, you really should eat a thoughtfully calculated sensible daily routine. At best, this should include five measures of grains and vegetables each day and also incorporate the right mix of important nutrients.
Some lower carb diet pointers:
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for deep fried foods. Although you can probably buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can also make them by using reduced carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is hard, whizz it in the food processor using a coarse blade. Keep in an airtight container.
* Make great smoothies by using reduced carb yogurt. Yes, its not technically cooking, but if you adore smoothies you can make them with reduced carb yogurt and your favorite fruit. Clearly, you will need to make sure you only make use of fruit that is low in carbohydrates and use all of the fruit as the fiber is important too.
