Ingredients
1 head of cabbage - chopped (core removed)1 bag of egg noodles1/4 cup of Smart Balance Salt and Pepper to taste
Directions
In a large skillet, melt the Smart Balance and add the chopped cabbage. Sautee on medium heat. Stirring occassionally to keep the cabbage moving and so it doesn't burn on the bottom.

You want the cabbage browned (see below). To be technical, you need to caramelize the cabbage to bring out the sweetness. It will probably take about 35-40 minutes of sauteeing and stirring to get it to this point. Do NOT cover with a lid at any time! You want the water to cook out and caramelize the sugars.

Now you want to boil the noodles. Once they're tender, drain and mix with the cabbage. I like to let it sit on very low heat so that the noodles have time to absorb some of the butter/shortening and the cabbage flavor. Salt and pepper to taste.

    This is a very good recipe. Adding sliced onions and caramelizing them along with the cabbage makes it even more incredible. - 3/12/10
