This dish was always a favorite at Granny's house. Cabbage is fried with onion and bacon in this simple quick side dish. Terrific with cornbread.

I would totally eat this by itself! Sounds great. I saute cabbage as a side dish occasionally, but this would really 'kick it up a notch'. You have my five!
