Ingredients

🥓 6 slices of bacon, chopped
🌭 1 package of Aidells Cajun Style Andouille Sausage, sliced
🥬 1 medium head of cabbage, chopped
🧅 1 onion, chopped
🔔 1 red bell pepper, chopped
🔔 1 green bell pepper, chopped
🧄 3 cloves of garlic, minced

Instructions

1- Prepare the Ingredients:

• Start by chopping the bacon and slicing the sausage into small, bite-sized pieces.
• Chop the cabbage into manageable pieces, discarding the core.
• Dice the onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper.
• Mince the garlic cloves finely.

2- Cook the Bacon and Sausage:

• Heat a large pan over medium heat.
• Add the chopped bacon and sausage, and cook until the bacon is crispy and the sausage is browned. This should take about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

3- Sauté the Vegetables:

• Once the bacon and sausage are done, add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the pan.
• Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes, or until they are soft and fragrant.

4- Add the Cabbage and Garlic:

• Incorporate the chopped cabbage and minced garlic into the pan with the other ingredients.
• Stir well to combine, ensuring the cabbage is evenly mixed with the bacon, sausage, and vegetables.

5- Cook Until Tender:

• Cover the pan with a lid and let the mixture cook for about 15 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. The cabbage should become tender but not overly soft.

6- Final Touches:

• Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add a sprinkle of salt, pepper, or even a dash of Cajun seasoning if desired.
• Remove from heat and serve hot, as a standalone dish or alongside your favorite protein.
