Cheese, Bacon And Cabbage. What’s not to like?
I’m calling this a cheesy bacon slaw simply because I don’t know what else to call it. I did actually make a similar cold slaw that went along with my Keto tuna salad. This morning when I opened my fridge I saw some bacon that needed to be used up as well as some cabbage. My friend Anu whose house I always stay in when I visit the UK had made a simple cabbage and bacon stir fry. That sparked the idea to make this cheesy bacon slaw. A few ingredients and a frying pan is all I needed and I had this incredible dish. It works great as a side dish or even as a main course. It’s filling, fatty and delicious. Enjoy!

October 12, 2018 at 2:37 amI made this tonight doubled and added another 100 grams of turkey bacon to up protein. I served it with some smoked herb rubbed pork tenderloin I had left over. Together they were a delicious pairing! I did use more than the recipe called for in Cabbage since I had a big head and wanted to use half of it. Fast and delicious! Works with my macro a big PLUS!

April 22, 2019 at 3:24 pmHi. How long do you think I can leave this in the fridge for? Is it okay to be frozen, heated in the microwave after it gets cold?
