Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 2 slices thick bacon or lardons, chopped
• .25 head green or purple cabbage
• 1 rib celery, sliced
• 1 tbsp celery leaves
• .5 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
• .5 tbsp fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1.5 tbsp tablespoons cider vinegar
• .5 tbsp minced shallot
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1 tsp whole grain Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

 

• Heat a cast iron skillet to medium-high and crisp all sides of the lardons or bacon. This can take about 10 minutes depending on the thickness of the bacon or lardon.
• Once the lardons are crisp, remove from the pan and spoon out rendered fat (save it for roasting veggies later).
• While bacon is cooking, shred cabbage using a food processor with a shredding attachment (or use a large knife and thinly slice). Add shredded cabbage to the pan over medium high to begin to brown. Remove from pan and place in a large bowl.
• Add the bacon, celery, celery leaves, capers, dill, and parsley to the bowl.
• In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, vinegar, shallot, garlic, mustard, and black pepper. Pour over cabbage mixture and toss.
