-
*1 tbsp Coconut Oil
*1/2 sliced vidalia or white onion
*1/4 sliced red onion

Directions
1. Heat coconut oil. Add onions, green bell pepper, and celery. Sauté until slightly browned, about 7-10 mins.
2. Add cabbage, sauté until cabbage begins wilting, about 10 minutes.
3. Add garlic, sauté for a minute, or until fragrant then add vinegar.
4. Add tomato sauce, complete seasoning, oregano, black pepper, and cumin. Mix all ingredients and let tomato sauce heat through, about four to five minutes.
