Happy April Fool’s Day! Today’s recipe is an oldie but a goodie – courtesy of WW 1969.

1 pound(s)

Apple cider vinegar

2 tbsp(s)

Poppy seeds

1 tsp(s)

Shredded cooked savoy cabbage

Water

½ cup(s), boiling

Canned pimentos

¼ cup(s), chopped or sliced

Instructions

  2. Add vinegar and poppy seeds to cabbage; toss thoroughly.
  3. Heap cabbage in a mound on the center of the baking dish. Lean cut side of frankfurters against cabbage to form a crown. Secure frankfurters with toothpicks.
