I can see that because he like cabbage when it's grilled. Although I don't think he's a feta fan. ;) Good Idea Cindy.. I can see that because he like cabbage when it’s grilled.

I don't like it in the least chunky...has to be either grated in a food processor or finely shredded for me. I usually buy the angel hair shredded cabbage in the bagged salad area of the grocery store and use it in salads, soups, stir fried dishes, noodles, and anything else that needs a handful of quick veggies. Roni, your little guy might be more willing to eat it if you just keep varying the cut of the cabbage til you find the one he likes?

I usually grab a bag of the Angel Hair Cole Slaw--which is only finely shredded cabbage, a little salt & pepper, crumbled RF feta cheese and a simple vinaigrette dressing--toss together and enjoy. It is truly one of my favorite side dishes or snacks. I actually had this today and added a little parmesan cheese and it was wonderful.

So far I have only been able to mix cabbage with Mayo and I am desperately on the lookout for healthier meals to help me lose more weight. I will surely explore your other recipes too!

I was PUMPED to find this recipe. Made it without the honey (not a fan of honey personally... Iknow Im weird) and it was still delicious. Thanks Roni!!

I didn't know about the soft cheese limitation until a couple years ago (2 years too late). One of my pregnant friends was complaining about missing queso cheese. I asked why. My doctor never told me. I swear that I didn’t eat coleslaw until I was like 30, but my husband loves it, especially the old school KFC recipe.

Roni- Thanks for the suggestion! I've been substituting extra sharp cheddar for blue cheese. That seemed like it might work, but I'll just look for pasteurized feta. One thing to add back on to the list! Crazylady- Thanks for the link! Roni- Thanks for the suggestion!

I was coming on your site today, specifically to tell you that all your Feta recipes finally got to me. I love Feta - but almost never buy it. I bought some a week ago and have been using it ever since. This morning, I made a spinach, ham, onion and feta cheese omlet. OMG. Delish. And, last night -- I made fish tacos. Took some fish, basically the ones that are frozen separately in individual bags, and I put spices on them and cooked on the stove. Added onion and garlic and "crumbled" the fish up to make the filling. Then I made a cabbage mixture with shredded cabbage, cilantro and lime to use as "lettuce". SO GOOD. Of course, fish tacos topped with Feta. I was going to write this exact comment no matter what meal you made today. Kind of funny that it actually was related to cabbage. HAHA! Love your ideas.

It's cabbage, dry ramen noodles, sunflower seeds and I can't recall what else but google "cabbage ramen noodle slaw" and you'll find it. Great picnic dish and no mayo. The noodles soften up from a dressing you make and it's a sweet/sour crunchy thing. Really good. Have you ever had the ramen noodle slaw?

I got two little cabbages in my CSA share also- although mine were both green, which seems less fun- but I'll definitely be trying this! Do you think there might be a good non-soft-cheese substitute for a pregnant diet? *sigh* So many things are off limits... Looks delicious!

Also you gotta try this but with a yoghurt dressing! Natural or greek yoghurt! Even just basic red cabbage plus the yoghurt all mixed up! DELISH. Especially as you don't like mayo. It's got the mayo texture but not the mayo taste. I'm not a big mayo fan either. :) Oh for a very quick and simple home made yoghurt dressing try mixing 6 tablespoons of natural yoghurt, 2 tablespoons red or white wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon good virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
