Easily Eggless

Ever have those mornings where the "incredible edible egg" are just not calling to your taste buds? For myself it is a rarity because I love eggs! Yet today I  took a nod at my cabbage and opted for something  else. A dish I make occasionally when my usual routines sounds mundane.  It's  hearty rustic flavors  and satisfying textures  fill the breakfast void. 

Serves 2-3

-1/3 medium cabbage roughly chopped

-2 medium potatoes diced ( Or Parsnips)

-1/2 onion

-3-4 Slices bacon

-Salt & Pepper

-1/2 Tbsp Apple cider vinegar 

1. Cook your bacon in a skillet on medium high heat until crispy. Remove bacon, keeping the residual oil in the pan. Use that to cook your onions till translucent. 

2. Add potatoes to onions, cook until tender & slightly caramelized edges. 

3. Then add cabbage to the pan & combine. Salt lightly & cook cabbage until gently wilted (you don't want to over cook the cabbage to mushy consistency)

4. Sprinkle vinegar & add cooked bacon by crumbling it in. Generously crack pepper & combine everything together, allow to cook for a minute or two more. Then enjoy!

To make this dish even more inviting dice & cook an apple right after the potatoes. It really elevates the flavors. Also spices like caraway, cloves & fennel seed lend themselves nicely to this dish. 

Crisp crumbles of salty bacon, warm potato, the gentle sweetness & crunch from the cabbage and onion will keep you coming back for more.
