Monday Night Cabbage, Bacon and Peppers

Submitted by Nimz_

"This is another favorite recipe that my sister and I serve to the group of want-a-be race car drivers that meet in the Man Cave every Monday night. The flavors are simple but go so well together. We like all our veggies crisp tender so you may need to increase the cooking time a little to suit your taste."

This is a great recipe and unbelievably delicious. Due to cholesterol, I omitted the bacon and used light olive oil in its place. This will be the only way I make cabbage from here on out!

We really enjoyed this recipe. For a change I didn't change any ingredients and the flavour turned out great. I changed up the cooking order though; onions first, then peppers. Great recipe, thanks for sharing.
