Creamy Cabbage - (Gluten Free)

We loved this very, very easy recipe for cabbage from the "Farm Journal Time Saving Country Cookbook".  Our mothers and grandmothers prepared cabbage lots of ways, and we still like it.  I served this as a side with Mustard Cream Pork Chops on homemade noodles – a real old-country comfort meal!
