Transform ordinary red cabbage into a culinary masterpiece with this vibrant and flavorful side dish! The tangy sweetness of apples and brown sugar, infused with warm spices, perfectly complements rich meats like pork, ham, and sausage. Prepare it ahead of time – the flavors meld and deepen beautifully overnight, and it freezes wonderfully for future enjoyment.
