whitmart's Note:

Frizzled cabbage with an Asian flavor. Easy to make with packaged slaw mix. Makes a nice side dish with steamed rice and Asian chicken wings.

Good, easy. I used regular white cabbage sliced by thinly. Also a little shallot and garlic. Fast, tasty, would make again.

I like cabbage and I liked this recipe. I used soy sauce with reduced sodium. Thanks Whitman :) Made for PAC Spring 2010 http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=327498&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

This was very easy to make. I followed the recipe as written. This was different. The kids enjoyed it more then I did as they thought it tastes like Chinese. I wasn't fond of the bacon soy sauce mixture. Made for Spring PAC 2010.
