Purple Cabbage

er1nya

HI all,

I just bought a head of purple cabbage from my local indoor farmers market and I'm not sure what to do with it! I have had cabbage soup, which I like, but I am looking for something else to do with it as well.

Please share your best cabbage recipe! If anyone knows a good one for the crock pot, you'll be my hero!

Thanks!

I just ate some at lunch! I used the recipe I linked to below, though I omitted cheese and added some lime juice to the avocado mixture so it is more of a guacamole spread:

We eat a ton of cabbage in my house. It is great as coleslaw (I make a lower cal one with reduced fat mayo and skim buttermilk) as a side dish or on a sandwich, you can make stuffed cabbage, I like it sauteed in olive oil with some garlic minced in it, sauteed with a hit of cider vinegar and a pinch of sugar served with kielbasa or sausages, moo shu chicken...

Can you tell I am a fan? :bigsmile:

This is one of my favorite recipes (I have the book). It calls for Napa Cabbage, but since I like purple more I use that instead. Super yummy!
