Excellent! Better than my grandparent's soul food Mississipi/Alabama recipe for smothered cabbage!

I fried the bacon instead of using bacon bits and used the bacon grease instead of margarine. This is my non vegan meal for the weekend and was totally worth it. I also had to add a lot more salt and red pepper flakes.

This is pretty good. Didn't have it with rice. Instead I used baked beans. Thanks for the recipe. Toni
