Southern-Style Cabbage

momstar's Note:

This is how I got my children to like cabbage. It is a simple recipe. It came from an old magazine clipping, do not remember which one. We usually have cornbread on the side with rice and sausage.

• Total Time: 45 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 4 slices bacon, cut in 1 inch pieces
• 2 lbs green cabbage, coarsely sliced

1. In a 5-quart dutch oven or 12-inch skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until browned.
2. Add cabbage, onion, salt; stir to coat cabbage evenly with bacon fat.

Needed some ground black pepper, but otherwise very good. Thanks for sharing!

This was so simple to make. I can see why kids would like this, as it is total comfort food. I made this with the 9cents per pound of cabbage I bought during St Patrick's Day week. I should have bought 6 heads and made this every night that week. I'm excited about sharing this dish at our next family gathering. I'll be making this often.
