this was great!! Even my picky/non-veggie eating 3 year old ate it (have to give it 5 stars just because of that!!). Made it from memory cause I did not have my computer at the time and made it a bit different. I cut up the bacon first then fried it semi crisp. then sauted all ingredients (except for the cabbage) for about 15 minutes in a cast iron skillet, then added the cabbage. My husband and myself loved it and it is a definate keeper. Next time I will make it by the cooking directions just to see if it is any better.

Pretty good recipe. I drained off some of the fat and added a little vinegar for personal preference.

I omitted the mushrooms and did not add any liquid (other than what was clinging to the vegetables). I only add about one tablespoon of butter. I Used about 1/2 cup of celery and one yellow, not green bell pepper. This should be glistening - if that seems greasy to you, then don't book with bacon grease! This is down-home cooking for sure. The best thing to do is fryt he bacon up whole, then save it to crumble over the cabbage at the end of cooking. This recipe needs a lot of salt, crushed red pepper, and maybe a dash of vinegar to make it sing.

Although this turned out rather greasy - I should have poured away some of the bacon grease - we thought this was absolutely delicious! Such a quick and easy way of eating a variety of veggies. I'll be making this often. Thanks, Gail!

Very good recipe Gail, but I did drain a good portion of the bacon fat. It was still wonderful and thanks!

The flavor of this dish was awesome. For me however it was a bit greasy and I only used 2 slices of bacon. I will omit the bacon next time (maybe add spicy sausage browned and then drained). Very good side dish me and "my other" ate the whole thing in one meal! Thanks for the recipe!

I found no grease problem with this recipe. [Cook bacon over medium-high heat until crisp, drain, crumble, set aside. Combine butter, cabbage, celery, green pepper, salt, pepper and onions. Cover, steam 15-20 minutes. Stir in crisp bacon just before serving.]
