Tips & Substitutions
For a crunchier relish, chop the vegetables by hand instead of using a food chopper. You can substitute the cabbage with napa cabbage for a milder flavor. If you're looking for a sweeter touch, consider adding diced apples or a splash of pineapple juice. This relish can also be adjusted with different bell pepper colors for a vibrant look.
