Author’s Bio:

This recipe is a delightful twist on the plain-old cabbage dish that was passed

down to me from my mother-in-law, Ms. Linda from Beckley, West Virginia. I have to

admit that in the past, cabbage has not been my ingredient of choice for cooking, but I

have enjoyed cooking and serving this dish to both my family and guests. It has a smooth

bite with a pleasing aftertaste that will surprise most people who try this dish for the first

time. Bon appetite! ~ Dehanna Bailee
