autumn red cabbage with pears

Did today feel like autumn, or what? Cold and wind, then sunny, then really windy- I thought for sure the power was going to go out. On the way to the store, there were a bunch of kids at the elementary school flying homemade kites! It all reminded me that I have been meaning to make a recipe to use up some red cabbage- autumn red cabbage with pears. It's in the "Vegetarian Times Complete Cookbook." I made it with apples instead of pears, because that's what I had. It tastes just like that German side dish that is served with sausages, and is seasoned with vinegar, sugar, salt, nutmeg, and pepper. I'm sorry this picture makes it look so disgusting- it really turned out delicious, and the kitchen smelled like mulled spices while it cooked. I am just having a hard time trying to figure out a vegetarian entree that I could serve with this.
