  • 1 cup vinegar (Type not specified - going with Cider)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp celery seed
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup salad oil
  • 1 tsp dry mustard
Instructions

  1. Layer cabbage on bottom, bell pepper in the middle, onion on top.  Sprinkle with sugar.

  2. In saucepan - vinegar, oil, celery (seed), salt or seed, dry mustard - boil.  Pour hot dressing over cabbage.
