1 teaspoon olive oil

1 1/2 cups thinly sliced onion

2 tablespoons sugar

2 bay leaves

Strong-flavored cabbage and onions can overwhelm any dish; here they're subdued

by the sweetness of the pears and cinnamon.

Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion; saute 5

minutes. Stir in cabbage, vinegar, sugar, bay leaves, and cinnamon stick;

cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until cabbage is tender. Stir in

pear, salt, and pepper; cover and cook 5 minutes. Discard bay leaves and

cinnamon stick. Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 3/4 cup).
