Intentions for the Week- Week 46 in 2025

Hello! Week 46! How was your weekend? My weekend was full of fun. We went on a family adventure to Napa yesterday, and I had a photo adventure in the city with friends on Saturday.  I hosted Self Check-In as per usual and did a small meal prep too, which included:

When life gives you too many apples, make Instant Pot Applesauce. It's a great addition to your meal prep arsenal. Recipe on Shutterbean.com!

Maple Bacon Cabbage

Try this Maple Bacon Cabbage recipe! Roasted cabbage wedges with crispy bacon and a homemade maple Dijon dressing. Easy, flavorful, gluten-free side dish for fall dinners, Thanksgiving, or meal prep. #vegetableside #cabbagerecipes #shutterbean

I wish I could tell my younger self that one day I’d be really into Maple Bacon Cabbage. The kind of into it where I make it twice in one week and happily eat most of it myself.  Middle-aged me simply cannot resist charred cabbage with BACON and a sweet dijon drizzle.

This recipe is adapted from Bon Appétit. I saw it in the magazine last week and realized I had everything except shallots and cabbage. I grabbed a cabbage at the store and completely spaced on the shallots. Oof. Luckily, I had a red onion at home (which I almost always do) and honestly? It worked out just fine. Maybe someday I’ll be the kind of person who reliably buys shallots. Check back in with me in 10 years.
