"A side dish used by many families in the southeast. A vegetable dish on many cafe menus. The addition of potatoes blend well with the flavor of cabbage---home-style cooking at its best!"

A 2 in 1 side dish that satisfies. I used baby red potatoes and kielbasa drippings instead of bacon. The next day I actually added the kielbasa to the vegetables for a great leftover one pot meal. Thank you! -
I'm not going to leave a star rating for this because I didn't follow the recipe very closely at all. But I did take inspiration from it. I browned one strip of bacon in a trying pan and fried 1/4 head of cabbage and two potatoes in it, adding salt and pepper and a little bit of margarine. I crumbled the bacon strip into the mixture. When the veggies were almost done, I moved everything into a pot and added 1/2 a cup of water and steamed the veggies until they were done. Towards the very end, I added a little bit of paprika, garlic, and onion powder. It was pretty good. Thank you for the inspiration! -
Wonderful says DH, we loved them, a lovely change for serving both potatoes and cabbage. What a great combination! Had no bacon drippings, I used becel margarine which worked perfectly. I had some lovely white potatoes to use so just scrubbed them and left the skin on. I will be making these often, thanks for posting.

<p>Thanks for taking the time to stop by My Page! I am married to a quiet, but fun loving guy who cleans up the kitchen!! I have grandchildren who I adore. I am retired from being a paralegal and a real estate agent. I have also been a substitute teacher for the elementary grades in the public school system. All of my recipes are the tried and true type. Many of them have come from my 48 years of cooking, my mother's recipe box or other relatives. I like Taste of Home magazine and I am a big fan of foodnetworkTV. I am a southern girl and enjoy comfort foods!!! I am a big cookbook collector and have been for years. I enjoy baking desserts most of all. I also enjoy games on my laptop, growing flowers, lunches with friends, babysitting grandchildren, photography and traveling. Since life is so short I try to count my blessings each day and give to the less fortunate. I had gotten into a rut on what to cook. Therefore, I am so happy I found the Recipezaar site. Pet Peeve: People with a negative attitude. MY RATING SYSTEM: 5 stars - Excellent in taste. May have minor change. 4 stars - Adjustment in ingredients for flavor. 3 stars - Fair, but not sure whether I would repeat. 2 and 1 stars - I do NOT give.
