SWEET-SOUR RED CABBAGE
The first time I bought a red cabbage, I didn't quite know what to do with it. After some experimenting, I came up with this recipe that's now my fall comfort food. As a side, it's compatible with a variety of meat entrees, but I especially like it with a pork roast or chops.-Karen Gorman, Gunnison, Colorado
