- garlic salt to taste

- 1 cup (236ml) chicken stock
Instructions
- Heat oil over medium heat in a large skillet, large saucepan, or dutch oven and sauté shallots for a couple of minutes until softened and lightly browned.
- Add a third of the cooked bacon and the cabbage pieces and fry for 1 minute.
- Stir in garlic salt and chicken stock, cover with a lid and allow to simmer, stirring occasionally for 10-12 minutes (fork tender cabbage with a little bite) or for about 17-20 minutes (softer cabbage).
- Uncover, adjust seasonings, switch off the heat, and toss in remaining bacon.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Cut the cabbage to the same size so it cooks at the same rate.
- Cook time will depend on the size of the cabbage pieces. These are 1-inch pieces and need between 10-18 minutes. Larger 2-inch pieces may need up to 25 minutes.
- Add more liquid and a little extra bacon to make it into a delicious cabbage soup.
- Storage - keep leftovers in airtight containers inside the fridge for 4 days.
- There are 7 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in a serving of this.
