"This is another favorite recipe that my sister and I serve to the group of want-a-be race car drivers that meet in the Man Cave every Monday night. The flavors are simple but go so well together. We like all our veggies crisp tender so you may need to increase the cooking time a little to suit your taste."

This is a great recipe and unbelievably delicious. Due to cholesterol, I omitted the bacon and used light olive oil in its place. This will be the only way I make cabbage from here on out!

We really enjoyed this recipe. For a change I didn't change any ingredients and the flavour turned out great. I changed up the cooking order though; onions first, then peppers. Great recipe, thanks for sharing.

I was one of the original members of Recipezaar that was truly a community of individuals that enjoyed each other in forums and chat rooms. I've been a member of this site since 2003. Made some tremendous friends that I still think of often. I'll continue coming here because my recipes are here and so many more that I tried over the years as a member. It's just a tad boring now and just another recipe site like all the rest. Sad.
