Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter
1 medium sweet onion, coarsley chopped
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
3/4 teaspoon sugar
2 -3 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 - 1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1 head green cabbage, about 3 lbs, coarsley chopped
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes

Directions

1

In a large, deep skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Saute onions in the butter for about 5 minutes or until softening.
2

To the skillet, add the crushed tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano and clery seeds; stir well and bring to just a soft boil.
3

Place chopped cabbage on top (the skillet will be full, but the cabbage will wilt down); reduce heat to medium-low, cover tightly and simmer for 15 minutes.
4

Remove lid and stir. Replace lid and simmer for an additional 20-25 minutes, (stirring once halfway through) or until desired tenderness is reached. If it appears to drying, just add a little water/broth.
5

Turn off heat. Stir in the cream cheese; heat through and serve.

***For Crockpot: Put everthing in the crockpot EXCEPT the cream cheese. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for about 3 hours (depends on how tender you like your cabbage). When done, stir in the cream cheese.
