It is a New Orleans tradition to eat black-eyed peas and cabbage on New Years day. Its supposed to bring you luck in the year to come. I personally didn't care for cooked cabbage until I came up with this recipe.
Ingredients:
1 head cabbage, sliced
1 lb bacon, sliced into small pieces
1 onion, chopped
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. In a large pot cook bacon, remove and drain, reserving the fat.
2. Add onion to bacon fat and cook for about 3 minutes.
3. Add cabbage and drained bacon and saute for 5-10 minutes.
4. Salt and pepper to taste.
