I found this recipe on Allrecipes also the other day and made it last night for St. Patty's Day. Everyone loved it- even my husband who thinks he doesn't like cabbage. I cut the recipe in half to serve 4 of us and some leftover that I froze. I used a 10 oz. bag of shredded cabbage and that worked well. I'm going to make the full recipe and package it up in smaller servings for the freezer.
