Sauteed cabbage with bacon
All kidding aside, this is the easiest side dish you’ll ever come across. Not only is it simple to make, but it’s surprisingly delicious. I never knew cabbage could be so yummy. Cabbage normally isn’t a culinary star, but in this dish it shines. This dish is also delicious without the bacon if you’re looking for a lighter side. You can also add a drizzle of maple syrup to bring out the sweetness or red chili flakes to give it a little heat. It is super versatile and has such a satisfying crunch. This recipe will serve four.
1 Bag Tri-Color Coleslaw (red & green cabbage & carrots)
2 Slices Bacon
Oil (Canola, Avocado or Olive)
Salt & Pepper
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook your bacon until crisp and all fat has been rendered. Remove from the pan and pat with a paper towel to remove excess oil. Add the bag of cabbage to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. If your bacon didn’t produce very much oil, you may need to add a drizzle of your own. The mixture will wilt down a lot through cooking. Crumble the bacon into small pieces and add it back in during the last minute of cooking. Salt & pepper to taste. Enjoy!
