- 2 cups thinly sliced green cabbage
- 3/4 teaspoon (about) hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco)
- 1 cup purchased seasoned croutons
- 3/4 cup grated Romano cheese (about 2 1/2 ounces)

Reduce heat to medium; simmer until all vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Season with hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper.
