Here is a recipe my family enjoys: Cabbage Salad. Jocelyn was the first to make it. It has taken me a couple of times to get it just right, not too sweet and not too vinegar-y. I wanted to share this with you so you could enjoy it as much as we do. :)

Delicious Cabbage Salad

1/2 medium head green cabbage, finely shredded or chopped (about four cups)

1/2 small carrot, shredded (about 1/4 cup)

1/3 cup apple cider vinegar *white vinegar was suggested, but apple cider vinegar is very good for you.*

3 tablespoons organic olive oil

2 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon chopped pimiento *optional*

2 very thin slices of fresh onion

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon pepper

You will have to use a sharp knife to cut up the cabbage, so ask your mom if you need to. After you chop the cabbage up, put it in a bowl, and set it aside. You can now shred the carrot onto it.

Measure out the vinegar, oil, honey, salt, pepper, and the spices and mix them up well.

Pour the vinegar mix on the cabbage and mix it up so that the dressing gets on all of it. If you want to, you can shred some more carrots on the top. You can also add some different things.

I like eating cucumbers and onions mixed with vinegar and oil. You can chop up some cucumbers and make a little more dressing to go with it. Be creative in the kitchen!

Next, enjoy it for a cookout, or a simple family lunch. It's a great salad for dinner as well.
