"When I was growing up I wouldn't eat cooked cabbage. My mom cooked it until it was grey and mushy and smelled awful. Ick! After I was grown I played around with it til I came up with something I liked and I make it this way every year for New Years."

Delicious, Alisa! Green peppers don't get along well with our tummies, so I used red instead. Even my husband, who is not a cabbage fan, enjoyed this. Thanks!!
