    Sautéed Cabbage with Carrots and CoconutPin

    I have a strange relationship with cabbage. I either love it or hate it, depending on how it's prepared. If it's cooked in a soup and it's kind of mushy, the smell and texture really makes me sick. But I love it in salads or sauteed. My husband loves cabbage and I am always making vegetarian dishes for him, many of which I will not eat 😉

    I made this Sautéed Cabbage with Carrots and Coconut about a month ago and it was simple, but delicious. It makes an easy and wonderful side dish with your favorite meat, poultry, or fish, or vegetarian main entree.Salt and pepper½ teaspoon ground cumin½ cup shredded coconut
