We loved how this fried cabbage with bacon uses three types of cabbage (green, red, and savoy). They all taste the same, but each has a slightly different texture. Frying down the cabbage in bacon grease is a fantastic way to cook cabbage. There's plenty of flavor thanks to the bacon and seasonings. You can serve this side dish with just about anything. It would be delicious with corned beef, burgers, steak, or roasted chicken. I love this as a main dish or a side dish ever since my grandma used to make this and spoon bread. I hope you enjoy!!

- After the red and green cabbage has cooked down for about 3 min
