Notes

  1. Bacon Substitute: If you're vegetarian, consider using a smoky meat substitute instead of bacon.
  2. Noodle Choices: While egg noodles are traditional, you can also use other pasta like fettuccine or tagliatelle.
  3. Cooking the Cabbage: The cabbage should be cooked until tender but not mushy, preserving a slight crunch.
  4. Serving Suggestions: Best served warm with freshly ground black pepper. Add a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
  5. Storage: Leftovers can be refrigerated for 3-4 days and reheated on the stovetop or microwave.
