INGREDIENTS :

• 1 yellow onion {I like Vidalia} diced
• salt and black pepper to taste
• 1 large head of cabbage, roughly chopped
• 2 tablespoons butter optional
• 8 slices thick-cut bacon, diced

DIRECTIONS :

1. Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add the bacon slices, then cook for a few minutes until crispy. Leave the bacon grease in the skillet.
2. Put the onion slices, then sauté for about 5 minutes or until translucent.
3. Add the cabbage, then stir-fry for a few minutes until soft.
4. Add 2 tbsp of butter and allow it to melt.
5. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top to season. Remove from the heat.
6. Serve and enjoy!

Notes:

• Butter is a great addition to this dish. It gives a nice flavor and it kind of evens out the saltiness of the dish.
• I highly suggest serving this over broccoli cornbread.
• Feel free to add fresh garlic and a bit of apple cider vinegar to this dish.
• Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
• Although, I highly doubt that there will be leftovers because this will be gone instantly. That’s how delicious it is!
