WHEN I was growing up, this was one of our favorite summer salads. I have fond memories of my barefooted sister and me going out to the garden after a cool summer rain to pick the cabbage from our patch. You might think the ice cream is a strange ingredient, but it makes it extra creamy and adds just a touch of sweetness. -Mattie Green, Ackley, Iowa
