That's it! I'm not a huge fan of cabbage but I will try anything once. This is a good side dish. But being that I am in Grad School and only cooking for myself even doing this recipe as a half. I was eating it for days and I got rather bored with it.
I think it would be something good to take to a summer or fall out door event though!
