This was quite good, def not traditional german style red cabbage but a decent light version. It was a little sweet, I would probly scale it down to 1/3c. sugar and maybe up the vinegar by a tablespoon or so. It does need a bit more salt it lacked a little flavor. As well I think next time I will fry up some turkey bacon and crumble pieces into it. My main problem was that it made sooo much, could feed probably closer to 8 people.
