German Red Cabbage

I scored at the supermarket yesterday: a large red cabbage for 99 cents! Woo hoo!!!

I have been wanting to make sweet and sour cabbage for a while.  I ate it lots when I lived in Brooklyn, as my upstairs neighbours always made it for our holiday potlucks -- Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

• Saute onion and apple until tender. Add all remaining ingredients.

Delicious the next day as leftovers!  Makes loads, so if you are a singleton, like me, you can freeze in individual portions.
