This is my grandmother's recipe for sweet and sour cabbage slaw that couldn't be simpler to make! My family loves it as a side dish for grilled burgers and hot dogs, but it works equally well in winter time with roast pork, or beef.
Ingredients
- medium head green cabbage: 1 piece (shredded)
- green bell peppers: 2 piece (diced)
- salt: (to taste)
- vinegar: 1 cup
- ½ cups sugar: 1 piece
- celery seed: 2 Tbsp
