Quick Tip
To shred a head of cabbage, cut it in half, slicing through the stem, then into quarters. Cut out each piece of the core and
discard. Shred the leaves in a food processor or on a box grater. Tightly wrapped, a leftover half or quarter of cabbage will
keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
