This was a nice side dish I served with pork. It was very mild - not to sweet, not too sour. It was something different that just a steamed veggie. I don't think it was the ultimate red cabbage recipe but it was a start.

Unfortunately I didn't go to the auction last week and I ended up having to buy two $1.69 bags of red cabbage to make this. That made it an expensive side dish.

Okay, my connection is awful so I'm going to have to make this short. Sorry.
