I wish I could tell my younger self that one day I’d be really into Maple Bacon Cabbage. The kind of into it where I make it twice in one week and happily eat most of it myself. Middle-aged me simply cannot resist charred cabbage with BACON and a sweet dijon drizzle.
This recipe is adapted from Bon Appétit. I saw it in the magazine last week and realized I had everything except shallots and cabbage. I grabbed a cabbage at the store and completely spaced on the shallots. Oof. Luckily, I had a red onion at home (which I almost always do) and honestly? It worked out just fine. Maybe someday I’ll be the kind of person who reliably buys shallots. Check back in with me in 10 years.
This might be a good side dish for your Thanksgiving feast!
