Braised Cabbage
Cabbage is one of the foods that made a regular appearance in our CSA boxes. And while I’m a big fan of homeamde coleslaw, Hubby is not. So we had to find another way to prepare our weekly head of cabbage.
This recipe came from just trial and error, playing around until we found something that we liked. And it’s no wonder we liked it, it’s cabbage braised in bacon drippings. This recipes makes quite a bit of braised cabbage, but it reheats nicely, so we just eat the leftovers until they are gone.

I have that cookbook! I have been very pleased with the recipes that I’ve made from there. This one sounds great.

I’m sure I would love this, the flavors all sound wonderful together 🙂
This sounds delicious! I love the idea of picking a new recipe once a week. I know my other and half and I try to do the same too. It’s all to easy to eat the same food over and over again.
I love mushrooms and artichokes – looks like such a perfect way to enjoy chicken! I try to make one new recipe every week too.
Your blog is amazing, You food looks divine and your photography is outstanding!!!
