I make this and portion it into single servings before freezing. Makes it very easy to serve at potluck dinners. I get individual plastic single-serving cups and lids at our local warehouse club. Also, I use celery seed instead of celery salt because, like nancy8, I salt the cabbage and drain it. This recipe can easily be adapted to your own taste. I like to "pretty" it up with some finely chopped fresh red bell pepper instead of the green bell pepper.

Hi there! - Yes, you can use a sugar substitute in this recipe. Just be sure to check the package to find out how much of your preferred sugar substitute is equal to regular sugar. This varies from brand to brand, which is why we suggest checking the package. Enjoy!

I make this and put in canning jars and freeze. It is so handy to have ready for any occasion. So make plenty. It keeps more than three months.

Dressing: 1 c. sugar, 1 c. vinegar, 1/4 c. vinegar, 1 tsp. salt, pepper to taste, 1/2 c. celery seed, 1/2 tsp. mustard seed (I use dry mustard).
