| 2 |
Ontario Onions, chopped |
| 1/2 |
Ontario Green, Red or Savoy Cabbage, coarsely
shredded (6 cups / 1.5 L) |
| 3 |
Ontario Carrots, shredded |
| 1/2 cup (125 mL) |

salt, or to taste |
| 1/4 tsp (1 mL) |
pepper |
| 1/2 cup (125 mL) |

| 2 tbsp (25 mL) |

In large skillet fry bacon until crisp. With slotted spoon,
remove to drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 1/4 cup
(50 mL) pan drippings.
Add onions and cook over medium heat until soft, about 3
minutes, stirring often. Mix in cabbage, carrots and parsley
to coat well with drippings. Stir in salt, pepper and water;
bring to boil, cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 10
to 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender-crisp and still
quite bright in colour, stirring occasionally. If mixture
seems too dry, add more water. If too much liquid remains
in skillet near end of cooking time, uncover and increase
heat to high for 1 minute, stirring often. Add bacon back
to pan and stir in vinegar. Heat through and serve immediately.
