Quick Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage
"This is modified from my favorite cooking magazine, Cuisine at Home. I liked it because it was quick and used ingredients on hand. Note on timing: Prep time is how long it actually took me--but I've been really blessed with loads of prep practice in restaurants. Cook time is a guestimate, I didn't really time it. Original recipe says total time is 25 minutes."

Back in the US after 10 years abroad. Good to be home and have good access to more familiar ingredients, however, I also loved all that I learned in my beloved adoptive country of Macedonia. I also had the privilege of running an American style bakery during my last 3 years in Skopje.
Baking is my addiction, but I do love all sorts of cooking. My husband recently ended his 15 year low-carb lifestyle, so we are both busy packing on the pounds and being able to eat forbidden foods together now! Love it (but not how snug my pants are!).
