Cabbage Salsa

Missy Wright's Note:

This is a mild salsa that you can heat up with how ever many peppers you wish to add. The cabbage absorbes the flavors of all the other ingredients. This is a great party food. Cook time is the chilling time.

Thank you so much for sharing this. It is so easy to make and makes a large batch. I have used it with tortilla chips and also with fresh veggies. I have shared with my Weight Watchers group and have received lots of comments.

What a Surprise this was. It was delicious. I did puree half of the tomatoes to give it more of a picante' style texture. I made this for our Labor day weekend and it didn't last the first day! I used only one pepper and that was about the right heat for my family. Thank you Melissa, for this interesting recipe.

Made this to go with our beef carna asada, ultimate restaurant salsa#189426, Spanish rice#20780 and what a delicious dish! I did leave out the tomatoes (already having a salsa with tomatoes) added some shredded carrots and a little oil to make it a little more like a salsa/slaw that we had in a Mexican restraurant...delicious! Definately will make this again and again. Thank you. Made for Bounce the Ball for Sumer Fun tag game.
