Note
Use pre-shredded cabbage and carrots from the produce section to save prep time.
If the sauce seems too thick after cooking, add a splash more water to thin it to your desired consistency.
Serve over steamed rice, quinoa, or noodles for a heartier meal.
For extra protein, you can add sliced bell peppers or broccoli florets along with the cabbage and carrots.
