6 Soups And Stews, #3
You’re gonna want a deep bowl for this crockpot red cabbage stew because it is delicious! Before you walk away from this crockpot red cabbage stew you must know that it tastes VERY GOOD. Try it! Take a look at what my friend Audrey from the Melady Cooks food blog had to say about this magnificent recipe:
We loved the colorful cabbage stew and had leftovers to enjoy for several more meals. The next time I make it perhaps I’ll add some diced sweet bell peppers to give it a slight change of flavors. You can’t have too many vegetables in a stew, can you? Or maybe add some black beans, chili powder and cumin to make it more of a chili. My P.S. walked in the door that evening and thought I was making chili! Chili with cabbage might be a good idea!
What a great idea! Cabbage chili? Yummy!
