This is not your average cole slaw/cabbage salad. This cabbage salad is lightly cooked and served warm. The beautiful purple color is very appetizing and the perfect accompaniment to almost any protein you would serve.
You can purchase bags of shredded cabbage, but it takes just 30-seconds or so to shred it yourself. And, a small head of cabbage goes a very long way, making this a very economical and delicious dish to make. Enjoy!
