"I HELPED MOTHER shred the cabbage and cut up the apples for this recipe. The touch of tartness is wonderful with the sauerbraten. This is one part of the meal that is even tastier if it can be made ahead."

This is one of my absolute favorite recipes. We enjoy it warm, right off the stove or even cold the next day. I'm not a big fan of cabbage but this is WONDERFUL! :)

I found this in "The Complete Guide to Country Cooking." I had just made Red Cabbage Casserole a couple weeks ago . This one is great!!! I am sending a copy to my daughter-in-law who loves cabbage anything. My husband who usually doesn't like red cabbage likes both. I serve either with lean pork steaks or bone in roasted/broiled chicken breasts. Thank You Barbara White from Cross Plains, WI for this recipe. I love it big time!!!!!!!
