Bubble 'n' Squeak

SUBMITTED BY: DOREENF PHOTO BY: ewojdyla

"Cabbage, bacon, ham, onion and leftover potatoes make up this tasty, easy dish. This is a great way to get the kids to eat cabbage. Using leftovers makes this main dish especially quick to make. I recommend using a good nonstick pan. Serve with ketchup, if desired."
