    Very Good
    This is very good. I think next time I make it, I'll omit the thyme. Though it was ok with the thyme, I felt like it distracted from the onion and cabbage flavors. We'll be making this again! Thanks! - 4/7/11

    I loved this recipe, I did add salt, pepper, and a bit of light margarine. But it is light yet filling, I will make it again. - 1/21/11
