Warm Apple Cabbage Slaw brings the freshness of a summer salad into the cooler months. A pat of butter and a hot pan bring out flavor depth but preserve the freshness of a classic combination: green cabbage and apples. Add an optional handful of walnuts to create a satisfying, protein- and fiber-rich side.
