First, here&#8217;s how I made my Stuffed Kohlrabi:<\/p>\n<p>Remove the stems from 3-4 kohlrabi and fully peel away the tough outer layers of them. Set aside the greens.<\/p>\n<p>Using a coring tool, insert into the center of the peeled kohlrabi, but do not pierce through to the base. You will probably not be able to remove the plug. Insert again, slightly out more toward the edge, again careful not to pierce the base. Continue this process, circling around the original central plug. Then, using a small serrated knife, remove the plugs and scrape a little to make the central cavity fairly smooth. Reserve what you remove from the kohlrabi.<\/p>\n<p>Oil and salt the kohlrabis inside and out. Add a tiny bit of extra virgin olive oil to the bottom of a Dutch oven, place the kohlrabis cavity side down and saute until slightly browned. Turn the kohlrabis over onto its base, turn down the heat, add a little water (2-4 TB), put the lid on the Dutch oven, turn down the flame, and cook until the kohlrabis are tender. Set aside until ready to assemble.<\/p>\n<p><strong>KOHLRABI FILLING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ko<span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">hlrabi &#8211; inside pulp of 3-4 kohlrabi<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Bok choy &#8211; stems, petite diced; greens, chopped 1\/4&#8243; pieces<\/li>\n<li>Brown Basmati rice, 1 cup dried<\/li>\n<li>Salt, 1\/2 tsp.<\/li>\n<li>Oregano, 1-1\/2 tsp.<\/li>\n<li>Lemon Juice, 1\/2 squeezed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Cook the rice until done.<\/li>\n<li>Chop the kohlrabi pulp, and add to a pan with a little extra virgin olive oil, and saute.<\/li>\n<li>Add the Bok Chop stems, petite diced, and saute briefly.<\/li>\n<li>Add the rice to a food processor, then the sauteed ingredients and seasonings.<\/li>\n<li>Pulse several times until the mixture is evenly mixed and chopped and looks like coarse grains.<\/li>\n<li>Add seasoning to taste (salt, a little hot paprika if desired)<\/li>\n<li>Use this mixture to fill the reserved kohlrabi.<\/li>\n<li>Add marinara to a dish, and place the stuffed kohlrabi on top of it.

Here&#8217;s what I did with the kohlrabi greens, though: I made my standard Greenie (green smoothie), and it was good! Even my non-green loving husband enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>GREENIE\u00a0<\/strong>(makes 2 16 oz. Greenies or more)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ice cubes, 8-10<\/li>\n<li>Apple juice, about 1\/2 cup<\/li>\n<li>Apple, 1\/2 chunked<\/li>\n<li>Banana, chunked<\/li>\n<li>Pineapple, 6-8 chunks<\/li>\n<li>2-3 cups rough chopped kohlrabi (or any) greens*<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Place the ice cubes in a Vitamix (a blender works almost as well). Add apple juice to 1 cup mark. Add apple chunks, banana chunks, pineapple chunks, and chopped greens. Process until smooth and delicious. More ice makes it thicker.<\/p>\n<p>Note: Greens contain a natural toxin to prevent over-grazing and eradication of the plant. Just vary your greens &#8212; don&#8217;t use the same one all the time. Keep your fruits and other veggies light-colored so you&#8217;ll end up with an appetizing, bright green drink.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If you&#8217;d like more information about the CSA, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.localharvest.org\/bobs-fresh-local-M36413\"><strong>Bob&#8217;s Fresh and Local<\/strong><\/a> (produce)\u00a0and\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.allgrassfarms.com\/\">All Grass Farms<\/a><\/strong> (livestock, chickens, milk and cheese).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For more, visit my blog, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vegetatingwithleslie.org\"><b>vegetatingwithleslie.org<\/b><\/a>, \u201cLike\u201d me on <b>FaceBook\/Vegetating with Leslie<\/b> or follow me on <b>Twitter<\/b>, @vegwithleslie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve never done much with kohlrabi before, so it took some experimenting, but I had a couple of good things this week.

I restored a log cabin and enjoyed it as an energy conscious home way before energy consciousness was publicly conscious. I hold a number of advanced degrees focused on religion, literature and languages. I published a chapter in a book on women's rituals in Judaism. I have enjoyed a variety of careers including teaching, educational programming in the not-for-profit sector, technology and web management. For the last eight years I have owned a five-star (YELP) vegetarian cafe. This year we were voted best vegetarian dining experience in McHenry County by the readers of the Northwest Herald. I write articles on food for a local newspaper. My current task is to figure out how this all fits together and what to do with it.","sameAs":["http:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org"],"url":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/?author=2"}]}},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4E03N-tk","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1818","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1818"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1818\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1846,"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1818\/revisions\/1846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1818"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1818"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetatingwithleslie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1818"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
