If you drop the brown sugar and add stevia you will cut the carb count even lower.

Another good one! I make something similar now. I adapted a recipe from one they make at our local Giant Eagle deli. It also uses napa cabbage and it stays so crispy and crunchy.

Nappa cabbage is so good and it was not until recently that I discovered just how good it is in recipes. This recipes is transformed due to the wonderful seasonings.
