Cranberry, Apple and Caraway Red Cabbage -Slow Cooker, Small or Large Batch

This Cranberry, Apple and Caraway Red Cabbage is a nice slow cooker side dish for a pork, ham, or sausage meal. Honestly folks, I can see it served with turkey at Thanksgiving too! It's a little sweet and a little tangy, and I believe it can be eaten hot or cold. I also really like the subtle occasional bite of caraway seeds. And this is a great way to use up a little extra cranberry, I always seem to have some in the freezer. As for the amount of sugar, start with 2 tablespoons, cook for a couple hours, stir and taste... Add more if desired, you know your crowd:@) The recipe is easily increased for a larger slow cooker.
Another variation:

Cranberry, Apple and Caraway Red Cabbage
3 C shredded red cabbage
1 large apple, peeled, cut into chunks
1/2 C cranberries, fresh or frozen
1/2 small onion, approximately heaping 1/4 C
2-3 Tblsp sugar
2 Tblsp cider vinegar
1/4 tsp caraway seeds
1/4 tsp salt
few grinds of black pepper
  1. Add everything to vessel, place paper towel under lid, cook on low 3 1/2-4 hours.
  2. Stir and serve hot or cold.
Eat well and have a happy day:@)
