Red Cabbage

I absolutely love German food, and by far the red cabbage is my favorite. My moms side of the family immigrated from Germany so we love making/eating German food. This recipe came from a lady in my home ward that was from Germany. This is pretty similar to the recipe my mom has. 

1 large head red cabbage

salt and pepper to taste

1 T. sugar

1 apple cut into small pieces

1 T. vinegar

1/2 t. oregano

1/2 lb bacon

Slice the cabbage very thing. Cook with water to boiling, reduce to low, and simmer for one hour. Add oregano, salt, pepper, and apple. Meanwhile, cut bacon into small pieces and fry. Add to cabbage and let simmer. When apples and cabbage are tender, add vinegar.
