BACON & CHEDDAR SAUSAGE HALUSHKI

Steps:

• Grill (or cook) sausages according to package directions. (I like to grill them over lower heat for a longer amount of time). When done, slice 1/3" thick, or as you like, into a bowl. Cover and set aside.
• Snip bacon into small pieces with kitchen scissors into a large frying pan and sauté over medium heat until crisp, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add onion and garlic, and sauté with bacon until onion is softened and translucent, about 5 more minutes. Set aside leaving the bacon drippings in the pan. Add sliced cabbage, salt, pepper, and toss. Cover until needed.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but al dente, about 18 minutes if using Reames. Drain well. Scrape bacon and onion mixture (with the drippings) into the pot you used to cook the noodles, add butter, and cook and stir cabbage until coated with drippings. Cover pot and cook cabbage over medium-low heat, about 15 to 18 minutes, or until cabbage is tender. Stirring occasionally. Gently stir in noodles and sliced, grilled sausages.
• Turn heat down to low and heat through, about 1 more minute, folding gently. Taste and adjust seasonings as you like. Serve with my homemade mashed potatoes if you'd like.
• NOTE: *If you're like me, and bake (or fry) your bacon when you buy it and save the grease, use 4 strips cooked bacon, snipped into pieces, and 2 Tbl. bacon grease. Cook the onion and garlic in the bacon grease and add the already-cooked bacon when you add the cabbage.

HALUSHKI

Steps:

• 1. Cut the bacon into 1 inch dice. In the bottom of a very large pot (8-12 quart) fry the bacon until crisp. Scoop out the bacon using a slotted spoon.
• 2. Dice the onion and then sauté in the bacon fat until softened and barely golden.
• 3. Quarter the cabbage, remove the core portion that is solid and tough. Cut each quarter in half again, the cut the cabbage into pieces about an inch wide. Separate the chunks of cabbage into individual leaves. Put into the pot with onions and bacon fat. Stir to coat the cabbage with the bacon fat. Put a lid on the pot and cook over medium-low heat until the cabbage is cooked to your taste. (My family likes a bit of crunch left in the cabbage). Stir occasionally being sure to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. A wooden spoon works great for this.
• 4. While the cabbage is cooking, prepare the noodles according to the package directions until al dente. Drain well.
• 5. When the cabbage is done to your taste, add the noodles, bacon, and butter and combine. Add seasoned salt and pepper to your taste.
• 6. I have also added cooked chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces) to this dish. You can also use ham instead of bacon. You can leave all the meat out for a vegetarian dish.
