We never had a name for this dish. Mom made it all the time and we called it "that cabbage stuff that Mom makes". Every time I wanted to make this I had to call her and say "tell me again how to made the cabbage stuff". One day she wrote it down and mailed it to me, I still have it. Mom's not here any longer so I'm very thankful to have some of her recipes.
This will serve 4, if I'm not there. Normally I double the amounts because it is even better left over. Don't stand and measure everything. If it looks right it probably is. Enjoy!
Mom's Cabbage

print recipe
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a heavy skillet
Add:
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 cups shredded or coarse chopped cabbage
1/2 cup green peppers
1 cup diced tomatoes, fresh or canned
3/4 teaspoon salt (better yet, House Seasoning)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup chopped onion
Cover and cook over medium-low heat about 10-12 minutes. Do not overcook.
When this is finished add another tablespoon butter, just because I said so.

Oh my gosh Beverly, that sounds divine!! I love cabbage in any shape or form. I think I can even make this! Thanks so much for stopping by today and you definitely have a deal. Like I tell Jaz, if I could only live on a street in the middle of both your houses. I'd be in heaven. I never did much cooking in my younger years. Working way too many jobs to make ends meet at the time. But now life is much different and better in every way. I actually have all the time in the world to cook but what I really need is someone here directing me. Blessings!
