Fried Cabbage #TasteCreations

Top of the morning to all you lads and lassies!



This is the month of all things Irish, and now I can include myself in that group!  I did the Ancestry.com DNA test and found out that I am 1/3 Irish.  I am going to embrace my heritage in full force and celebrate St. Patrick's day the best way I can, with food!

Our Taste Creation bloggers, Rosemary from An Italian in My Kitchen and Lauren from Mom Home Guide have cooked up some wonderful recipes for you as well.  If you like cabbage, you are in for a treat!

This cabbage dish is so easy that it is a perfect weekday meal.  If you buy the packaged shredded cabbage, the cook time is reduced by half and the prep is nearly nonexistent!



Fried Cabbage and Bacon

6 slices of your favorite bacon, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 small head of cabbage, chopped
1 T salt
1/2 t pepper
1 t onion powder
1 t garlic powder

Cook bacon, add onion and garlic and saute vegetables until translucent.  Stir in sliced cabbage, stirring and cooking ten minutes.  Season with all the seasonings.  Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook 15 more minutes, stirring occasionally.

Serve with a healthy slice of soda bread and a sunnyside up egg.  Yum yum.

I hope you enjoy this dish!  Since St. Patrick's Day is on a Friday, you can enjoy this recipe in leisure. Let me know if you give it a try!
