  4. Add celery and onion. Cook 4 to 7 minutes until soft.
  5. Add cabbage, green pepper, salt and black pepper. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring often so the cabbage sweats.

Notes

  • If you don’t have tomatoes, try adding ¾ cup cooked, sliced carrots instead.

Comments

The flavors blended very well. Tasted simple and fresh. This recipe was a great way to use the leftover cabbage in my refridgerator!
