Fried Cabbage and Bacon

[jcam222]

Sowsage posted some delicious looking cabbage and bacon awhile back. Ever since then I have had the munchies for it. Yesterday at my favorite Amish market they had whole heads of cabbage for $0.49 a piece. Couldn't pass that up especially since I just finished off a new batch of bacon.

Diced up the last lbs. of belly bacon I found in the freezer yesterday and about a half pound of bacon ends from my new run of buckboard.

Adding some onions, gotta have onions right?

Time to add a nice big head of cabbage cut up in bite size pieces. Added it to all the bacon , onions and bacon grease, also added some salt, coarse pepper and red pepper flake to taste.

All finished up just in time for my wife getting home from work. I took the day off after being at a football game and drive home until 3am. Had to try a taste and its pretty good. I think later I will give it a go with eggs like Sowsage did in his post.

thanks for looking!, nothing fancy here but sometimes simple food hits the spot!

Hey cool, We have been on keto since last April. All my cooks fit it. I make my own rubs for it as well. Check out my post of the German Fauxtato Salad w/ homemade bratwurst patties on Swiss and rye chaffles. :) all keto

Looks good. I haven't made that for a while. I think I know what's for dinner tomorrow.

Yup, nice combo. I add 1/4 cup of chicken broth for a bit of added flavour.

Yep that’s a good add, I sometimes add some too.

Its great that you make it from fresh. We usually grab a ready cut bag of cabbage that includes shaved carrot and a couple of other things. Still turns out pretty good though.

I'm sure that was great. We are having a quick version of Halushki Saturday night. Fried Cabbage and Onions with Bow Tie Pasta. Not Keto Friendly but a family favorite for generations...JJ

Looks great!! Smoked sausage is awesome with it. I’m thinking about trying it with crumbled breakfast sausage next.

Next time I'm doing bacon and smoked sausage.

I love fried cabbage. A drizzle of your favorite vinegar over your portion definitely adds character.
