I just love simple recipes. Today’s recipe, a cabbage, apple, and onion saute is one of my absolute favorite side dishes. Just 4 ingredients (5 if you add salt) of napa cabbage, apple, and onion cooking in bacon grease. Oh my word, it is heaven in a skillet.<\/p>\n

Now before you go clicking on the x because I said bacon grease, hear me out. Bacon grease has been demonized but honestly, it’s pretty darn good for us. Bacon fat is more monounsaturated fat than saturated fat (surprise!), a source of\u00a0phosophatidyl choline a powerful antioxidant, and is heat stable. \u00a0(source<\/span><\/a>) We want heat stable fats! Olive oil and other fats tend to turn carcinogenic (cancer causing) when expose to even low amounts of heat. Olive oil is great to put on top of a salad, not so healthy to cook with. The most important part about cooking with bacon grease is that\u00a0it tastes great<\/strong>. Healthy food is allowed to taste good, I promise.<\/p>\n

To make this, I like to layer the onion on the bottom so it carmelizes a bit then the cabbage and apple. Stir it around frequently until the cabbage starts to darken and become soft. You can cook it until it’s as soft as you like your vegetables. I usually saute this for around 8 minutes and the cabbage still has a slight bit of crunch to it. Taste as you go\u00a0and cook it until it reaches the level of doneness you like your veggies.<\/p>\n
