I picked up some red cabbage to slice into a salad and had half a head left. I found several recipes that were simple and required few ingredients. I’ve never cooked red cabbage before so I wasn’t sure how it would be.

This sautéed red cabbage recipe turned out to be very good. I liked the sweetened vinegar seasoning. It is kind of like a warm cabbage salad with vinegarette dressing.

You can bet I’ll be making this yummy side dish again. I may even try using the red cabbage in a crack slaw to give it a different color.

With it’s bright color, I’m thinking of serving this sautéed red cabbage at our holiday dinner. It’s really more of a purple rather than red, but I still think it’s a festive color.

Although this dish isn’t the right color for St. Patrick’s Day, I think it would take great served along with corned beef. However, the colors of the meal would be rather monotonous.

They say apple cider vinegar has many benefits and I just love the taste of it. In fact, I like to drink it diluted to help prevent issues related to heart disease.

The touch of sweetness in this sautéed cabbage offsets the tart flavor of the vinegar perfectly. I used Truvia, but you could just add in a few drops of liquid stevia instead.

If you’ve never cooked red cabbage before, I urge you to give this recipe a try. The taste really surprised me and I’ll be cooking this up again.
