Cabbage, either raw or cooked, has been proven to lower cholesterol. Replacing mayonnaise or buttermilk with oil and lemon juice makes for a much lighter, almost pickled mixture, and the taste of fresh mint lightens and lifts the entire dish. Chopping and mixing begins and ends the labor. For a special treat, try adding apples, cranberries, or chopped nuts.
